What is the issue here?
Hi TBBETA I attach 2 small text files (Documentum links) User Guide.drl arrived in TB, and double clicking on the link said I couldn't access the file. Saving it my desktop and double clicking - said I couldn't access the referenced file User Guide2.drl was THE SAME e-mail message viewed from Outlook. Doubling linking on this link - opened the Documentum file. Saving the DRL to the desktop gave me a shortcut which I could use to get to the file. I know I'm old - but I can see no difference in these two files or their contents. Anyone got an idea what the issue might be - and why there is a difference in action here? -- Thx Graham -- Notice: This e-mail message, together with any attachments, contains information of Merck Co., Inc.

They look the same in Notepad, maybe someone with a hex editor can share more light. -- Cheers, Thomas. Fettflecken werden wie neu, wenn man sie regelmaessig mit Butter beschmiert.

Both files contain the line: gdmsbprd:/0900310a80131e46?DMS_OBJECT_SPEC=CHRONICLE_IDDMS_VLAB=CURRENT However, User Guide.DRL contains a newline (CR+LF) sequence, while User Guide 2.DRL does not. It could very well be that your Documentum software dies on the extra newline that The Bat! seems to have added. Note that if I save these files, one is 74 bytes and the other is 72 bytes, although The Bat! claims they are 78 and 75 bytes! This may be another (unrelated) bug, though... pgpkNcp3Gp8Ls.pgp Description: PGP signature Current beta is 3.0.2.10 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/

When you store a document in the Documentum database you can send a reference by mail. But to open this link you need to have the documentum desktop installed. That is the reason you cannot open the file but not the referenced document. -- Regards, Feli The Bat! 3.0.2.10 on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 2 BayesIt! 0.8.0 Release Current beta is 3.0.2.10 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
