thank you for replying me as fast as possible.

i have one common document and that has to be viewed in the each folder in the file browser.
i kept same document more than two open km folders, so i dont want to upload that document in each folder.
i want to place that document one place and that should be shown in each and every folder.
EX:
example.doc is my document

i want to place this document in each every folder.

folders: main
|
------docs
|
-----example.doc

sub-main
|
------general docs
|
-----example.doc

i dont want to upload that example.doc file each and every time but name of the file should be shown in each and every folder.
i mean address of the document should be maintained in each and every folder.


for this do u have any solution?
please help me.

You're talking about alias. That's not yet implemented in version 5.x it'll be available on upper version. We've planed records and alias. We've been working on it, but it's still not yet done.

The only solution I can suggest now is browsing across categories. Users browsing across categories can see the same document in diferent folders. It's the only option ( minimally acceptable ) that could solves your problem.

You can use document categories. Categories are like folder, and you can browse them. If you assign the same category to two documents located in different repository folders, in the category view they are show in the same place. Not sure if you understan what I mean. Is more simple to view than to explain :?
