This article was previously published under Q330804



SYMPTOMS
At authoring time in Microsoft Content Management Server (MCMS) 2002, you cannot successfully drag an attachment to an HTML Placeholder server control.



CAUSE
The file name of the attachment is in double-byte character set (DBCS) characters.



RESOLUTION
To work around this problem, use a SingleAttachmentPlaceholderControl control.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a bug in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.



MORE INFORMATION
At authoring time, you can typically drag attachment files to an HtmlPlaceholderControl control if the HtmlPlaceholderDefinition.AllowAttachments property is set to True. If the attachment file name contains DBCS characters, however, you cannot. This problem occurs both in Active Server Pages (ASP) templates and in ASPX templates.

The ActiveX control, Nrdhtml.dll, is compiled with the preprocessor Unicode symbol undefined. This was intentional based on the decision to support Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition (Me) as the base client authoring platform. Windows Me supports a subset of the Unicode platform.
