+*** Use an "attach" link type to open files without worrying about their location
+
+-- Darlan Cavalcante Moreira
+
+In the setup part in my org-files I put:
+
+#+begin_src org
+  ,#+LINK: attach elisp:(org-open-file (org-attach-expand "%s"))
+#+end_src org
+
+Now I can use the "attach" link type, but org will ask me if I want to
+allow executing the elisp code.  To avoid this you can even set
+org-confirm-elisp-link-function to nil (I don't like this because it allows
+any elisp code in links) or you can set org-confirm-elisp-link-not-regexp
+appropriately.
+
+In my case I use
+
+: (setq org-confirm-elisp-link-not-regexp "org-open-file")
+
+This works very well.

 Org-attach is great for quickly linking files to a project. But if you
 use org-attach extensively you might find yourself wanting to browse
