LOL.

Next question,

When I first upload the file using the ERAttachmentUpload component the result 
is what I'd expect it to be i.e. an object of my entity and an object of 
erattachment are created and the file is stored per the configuration.

However, if I then update my entity and upload a new file I get a behavior I 
didn't expect.  This time a new entity of type ERAttachment is created and the 
old one is now left dangling in the database without any reference to it.  The 
file(s) on the system are also untouched.

Does this mean I have a problem in the model or is that the expected behavior 
and I need to add some logic to complete the clean up?

Thanks,

Johnny
