I am using document exchange and would like to directly link to the latest version of a document from another module.
For example, I have a text/html module that describes one of our policies and links to the latest version of the policy which is a pdf in the document exchange. Our policy may change pretty regularly and this link can be used in a number of places so I was wondering if there is any way to allow my links to always point to the latest version of a document that it is linking to?
Regards
Phil

Phil,
It does that already. The EntryId for the last version is kept constant. Older versions are moved to a different EntryId. I've done what you want to do: to make a link somewhere which will immediately download the latest version of the document. The easiest way is to copy the link under the download icon. If you want to program something you can even do it without knowing the exact module location by constucting a url to ~/DesktopModules/Bring2mind/DMX/Download.aspx with parameters EntryId, PortalId, and DownloadMethod (either 'attachment' or 'inine').

Hi Peter,
Sorry, I must have an older version of the application. I'll download the latest version. Thanks for your help and a great module.

Hi peter,
I downloaded the latest version from your repository, but it doesn't seem to make any difference, altho I did only download the lite version. Is this a feature only available in the pro version?
Regards
Phil

Phil,
Exactly. These forums are about the pro version.

Ok no problem.
We only have the pro version installed on our prod servers, my dev server at home where I do my testing only has the lite version, I thought this feature was replicated throughout both versions.
Thanks for your help.
Phil
