It's not possible with a script. Your users will have to manually use the "Attach File as Comment" tool and the document will have to be Reader-enabled so that commenting is allowed.

Many thanks for the prompt reply

If its not possible then i was wondering if there is any way to create a button to pop up "Attach file as Comment " function automatically which can help people to understand the attachment process???

You could use an alert to provide instructions, something like the following script in the Mouse Up event of a button:

app.alert("Your instructions go here.");
