Hello Halvdan, *We are planning on introducing files as a type for data values, as well as data elements supporting this (document, images). You would then use the datavalue model to implement these types of requirements.*
^^This is exactly what is needed by us. I didn't know this was already in the works!! May be its a bit early to ask but.....for which version is this planned for? It will be of immense use in one of our projects. regards harsh On 28 July 2015 at 14:10, Halvdan Grelland <[email protected]> wrote: > We are planning on introducing files as a type for data values, as well as > data elements supporting this (document, images).
