Pretty much as the title says - is there a way to attach a text file to an assembly and then when you check the assembly in to vault, the text file will show in vault as an attachment?

In this case the point is literally having an attachment in vault.  We do not need the text embedded into the file. 

 

I know you can do the attaching from within Vault, but I was hoping to be able to do it from within Inventor to simplify the process.  

 

Using ReferencedOLEFileDescriptors was easy enough, but when you use that, the file does check in to vault, but it is not an attachment once inside vault.  Was hoping there was a method you could use for something like that that would have it be an attachment inside of vault.
