Assigning Multiple Locations to Objects
Documents usually consist of the document file, the index data, and one location. You can create more than one location for documents by adding them to a new location in a new register or new folder.
Index data and document files can be edited in exactly the same way from any location.
If a document has more than one location, the location tabs for the data sheet contain buttons used to switch between the index data of the folders and registers in which the document is located.

- Select a document from a folder window, a portfolio, or the filing tray.
- Open a folder or register as the destination.
- Drag the document to the destination while holding down the Ctrl key.
A new location is assigned to the document.
Creating References to Documents
If you drag the object while holding down the right mouse button, a context menu will open. Select whether to add another location to the document, create a copy (see 'Copying Documents'), move the document, or create a cross-type reference document.

The document can receive any location. When working with reference documents, however, you cannot edit the document file. You can only edit the document file via the original file.
Deleting Documents with Multiple Locations
Documents can be deleted either from a hit list or from a folder window.
Documents found at multiple locations cannot be deleted from the hit list. If you attempt to delete a document with multiple locations from the hit list, you will be notified that the document is found at multiple locations. Switch to the locations of the document and delete it there. You delete a document only at one location. All other locations are kept. The deleted location data cannot be restored.
