comment How do I fetch the attachments from an AttachmentsField control?
I mimicked that in the past, but that just gets you the control. It doesn't really explain how to get the attachments from the control.

comment How do I fetch the attachments from an AttachmentsField control?
No, I would like to retrieve the list of attachments of the current list item as rendered in the AttachmentsField control. Attachments on the SPListItem doesn't update until the form is submitted, and I can't submit that data to update the attachments if I can't properly read the AttachmentsField control.

@Chris Currently? C# server-side. I'm open to anything that'll prevent me from having to create my own pseudo-AttachmentsField control as a workaround for this edit form.

comment Validation on page load treats SharePoint field controls as empty
Tried this in conjunction with Dave's answer to see if I could hit the DateTimeControl, but it didn't take. However, switching it to OnPreRenderComplete did successfully hit those, so that seems to do the trick.

comment Validation on page load treats SharePoint field controls as empty
This did the trick... sorta. Only works if I use the built-in UserField and DateTimeField controls, but it doesn't work with the bare DateTimeControl. Which is curious, but in general unimpactful since I'm preferable to the former in the first place. Thanks, both for the answer and the better tip for common practices.

comment How do I set a list to not be valid for search through the object model?
So simple, and yet so easy to overlook because all of the documentation seems to go all the way to avoiding the word "Search" on a setting that, in the UI, only says "Search".
