A document is a collective term for media such as paper, magnetic disk and tapes, optical device, etc. Field attributes are associated with e B Documents, not Document Objects. There are two forms of Wild Cards available. The Like Operator must be used in conjunction with Wild Cards. Each document class is defined by the attributes selected for it.
Every document belongs to the document class selected for it when it is indexed to the system.
When searching for a document a user can specify whether they want to search for the current, historical, or checked out version. In addition, objects can be launched in their native applications from the viewer. By using the viewlist several windows can be opened on the same document. In addition, a window may be split to allow the user to work on different parts of a document object without opening a new window. Altris e B integrates with the user's own MAPI-Compliant mail system.
