Hi,

As far as I know, a solution that prohibits downloading of attachments will also deny the user to see if there is an attachment at all. As soon as the attachment is viewable (readable) you can also download it.

Is this desirable?

Hi Olan,

thats ok for me, could you please help me on that.

Okay. I assume your corporate network has a defined IP-range used when login?

The way I would go, is to create an read ACL on the sys_attachment table, that uses the GlideSession to define if a user should have access.
If the user login event has a corporate IP address as parm, then grant access.

Look at this useful video by Chuck Tomasi, or browse on the Docs to learn more.
