Help!: Export linked items causes unwanted multiple file copies

[igoldsmid]

One of the key features of UR is logical linking.

However, when Exporting Documents and Item Rich Text to a Folder, this causes multiple copies of the same actual files (as opposed to windows shortcuts) to be exported to the degree any file is logically linked.

Is there a way to have UR export only one actual copy of any file, and all other logical links as windows shortcuts?

Perhaps, I guess, this may be difficult as how would UR "know" which was the original Item from which all the related logical links were created?


Thanks

No. Windows shortcuts are not equivalent to UR logical linking. With Vista, Windows does now support something akin to logical links (called symbolic links), but it has some limitations, and older versions of Windows don't support it.
