What is "checked in" on a project? - D-Tools Forum

What exactly is checked in on a project when I check it in?

Are all the files in the directory brought into the SQL database?

For example: If I have create a proposal for a customer and then add a Visio Drawing, and maybe a few other documents (that I use the "Add a file to this project" option) - other documents like maybe a spreadsheet, some specs sheets, maybe some literature for that job etc... Are all of those synchronized into the database? Or is JUST the proposal?

Reed - I appreciate you pointing to me the page, but not giving me the answer here does not help me, nor anyone else who might have this question down the road. In the future, I'd recommend please posting the page AND the answer. Thank you again, however, for pointing me in the right direction.

For anyone else who was curious: the answer is YES - as long as it was ADDED through the navigator - it will be synch'd up to the server and copied back down to other workstations.
