Novell Vibe enables you to import files from any location and add them to a folder in your workspace. There are two ways to do this.
Vibe enables you to drag files from any location, and drop them into any Vibe folder.
If you are adding files to a Vibe Files folder, the behavior can be different. For more information about adding files to a Files folder, see Section 6.5.1, Adding Files to a Files Folder and Other WebDAV-Enabled Folders.
Navigate to the folder where you want to add the files.
Click in the Folder Entry toolbar.
The drag-and-drop window opens.
Drag a file from one location, such as your desktop, and drop it onto the folder icon in the drag-and-drop window.
A new entry is created with the file as an entry attachment. The name of the document is automatically the name of the entry.
If you want to attach files to a folder entry, you can attach the file when you are creating the entry, as described in Section 7.1, Creating a Folder Entry, or you can modify an existing entry to attach the file, as described in Section 7.13.2, Attaching Files to a Folder Entry.
Because Files folders require each file to have a unique name, Files folders behave differently from other types of Vibe folders. For specific information about importing files into a Vibe Files folder, see Section 6.5.1, Adding Files to a Files Folder and Other WebDAV-Enabled Folders.
You can import single files into a Files folder by browsing your computer’s file system and creating a new file entry, if the file that you want to import has a unique name from all other files in the Files folder.
Navigate to the Files folder where you want to import the file.
Click in the Folder Entry toolbar.
Click , then browse to and select the file that you want to import.
Add a description of the file in the field, then click .
