Hi all,

We are currently using ERAttachment in one of our projects. The particular app 
it is being used in has it's own DB which resides on a physically separate 
server from most of the rest of our Schemas. This app works great, and handles 
literally thousands of attachments per day (hence the reason for it's own 
physical server and database).

Now I want to use ERAttachment for another purpose. I want to put it in a 
framework that could be used by many, if not all, of our applications, 
including the system that currently uses ERAttachment. I can't use the existing 
ERAttachment tables in this other, physically-seperate database because EOF 
can't do the cross-database fetches it needs to.

Theoretically, I could have the DBAs setup a cross-database link between the 
two databases so EOF could get to the other Schema, but it wouldn't really make 
sense from an organizational perspective to have just the attachments on a 
different  server, that is for a completely different business purpose, from 
all the rest of the new framework's tables.

The problem is that ERAttachment seems to only allow you to configure one 
connection dictionary for it. It doesn't appear that you can make use of the 
"configurationName" functionality to have different sets of ERAttachment tables.

Am I missing how that can be implemented, or is it something that I shouldn't 
even be attempting? It seems quite limiting to only allow one set of 
ERAttachment tables per application.
