Here is an easy way to attach a file via Lotus Script and display the right icon (not Appear as V2 Style Attachments).

In a form create a Rich Text Field named 'Body' and a button. Create 2 agent.

'Button Click (Formula)
@PostedCommand([ToolsRunMacro]; "(Agent1)");
@PostedCommand([ToolsRunMacro]; "(Agent2)")

'First Agent (Lotus Script)
Sub Initialize
	On Error Goto ErrorHandler      
	
	Dim ws As New NotesUIWorkspace 
	Dim uidoc As NotesUIDocument 
	Dim doc As notesdocument
	
	'********** 
	' Assign a full pathname
	'********** 	
	Const SCANFILEPATH$={C:Tempimage.tiff} 
	
	Set uidoc = ws.CurrentDocument 
	Set doc = uidoc.document
	
	Call uidoc.FieldSetText("ScanFilePath", SCANFILEPATH)
	Call uidoc.save
	
	
TheEnd: 
	Exit Sub 
	
ErrorHandler: 
	Messagebox {The following unexpected error has occured: } & Trim$(Str 
(Err)) & {: } & Error$, 0+48+0+0, {Error Message..} 
	
	Resume TheEnd   
End Sub

'Second Agent (Formula)
@PostedCommand([EditGotoField];"Body") : @PostedCommand 
( [EditInsertFileAttachment] ; ScanFilePath)
