Hi All,

My req. is some thing like:

I will have 2 different databases, the first one for example is like mail db and second is one which temp db having some folders and documents under the folders.

I need to show the second database folders and documents in the first database. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance,

Arnavee

Depends on how you want it to look and work. You could always create a outline, that shows a view from another database. Check out the outline possibilities.

Or you could use an embedded view to show the folder, possibly alongside “local” views.

But be careful, embedded views impose a number of arbitrary restrictions and malfunctions (especially when used with Categorized and single category views)

Hi,

I want to know if I can do adding, modifying and deleting the documents using outlines or embedded views, which actually change the second database from the first database.

Thanks in advance,

Abolutely. If a view is shown as an embedded view, or linked from an outline, it works just (well, almost) as if it had been opened directly.

You should, however, have a “Add” or “Compose” or “New” or “Create” view action button to create new documents, since the Create menu will reflect forms in the current database. But opening and deleting documents is straight-forward.
