Autofile would work as it does presently, except it would be applied to all files associated with an item, not just Local-Url. So you drop a file on the view, and if there's enough info, it's autofiled immediately. If not, we could badge it with a caution icon or something. At present, I don't think setting the Local-Url from a script will trigger an Autofile action, and I don't think it should do this in future. Christiaan's our Autofile expert, so he can correct me on this. -- Adam ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
