I have several questions about older version of documents. How do I access older versions of a document, without searching for it? Is it possible to have the same document in more than one collection? If I copy the document it makes a copy of the document instead of creating a reference to it. Thanks

1. Go to the document details and look for the 'version list' (by default only visible for those with edit permission). Click on an older version and you'll see the details of that document. 2. There is no possibility to 'reference' the same document. Copying only creates a real copy. A document exists only in one collection. What you want is implemented using categories. Documents can be in any number of categories. My advice: use collections to organize and layout permissions in your DMX. Use categories to make content available if you need to have mulitple places for a single document.

About Bring2mind

Bring2mind is the company of Peter Donker, a DotNetNuke enthusiast who has been involved with the platform from the very beginning. At the same time as the market for modules emerged, he realized there was no good document management solution for the platform yet and he set about creating this. In part he based the module on his experience with other document management systems he used while working as a researcher. His module, Document Exchange, was an instant success and has since become the premier document management solution for DotNetNuke. In 2004 he created Bring2mind as a vehicle for the module and is one of the few successful businesses solely based on a DotNetNuke product.
