Hi Peter,

I definitelly agree with you that we should be very carefull in using  
attachments in model
but during using EPFC I recognized that it can be very helpful has
option to attach file to Example.

Just let's imagine that we have Template 'project plan' in MS Project plan  
format.
We find usefull attach some examples how this template can be use ... and  
that's again MS Project file. :-)

all the best,
jan


Hello.
(1) As I mentioned in the email list, you can attach and provide URLs in  
the
rich text fields using the Add Link button.  The reason why there is not
separate field is that attachments for these types are not the normal case,
but rather the exception until you migrated your content in the EPF format.
For templates an attachment is required as you need to provide the
attachment for that third party tool the template describes.  That's why
there is a separate field, to remind people.

(2) We could provide another field for templates that manage URLs, but in
most cases you want to document your URLs, i.e. explain what they point to,
don't you? So the rich text fields seem to be the best place to put these.
