Update: Check out my post on why we would want to consider multi-file document management for SharePoint. The post shows how SharePoint’s single-file document management approach greatly limits your its capabilities in terms of version history, workflow, security, and other areas. View the post here:

It was great speaking at SharePoint Saturday NH last month. My presentation on Advanced SharePoint Document Management with Multi-file Documents is now available.

This session focused on implementing advanced SharePoint document management systems with virtual and compound documents. We looked at why we would want to consider multi-file documents as part of our SharePoint document management system and some characteristics of a good implementation. We also investigated some usage scenarios that are made possible or practical through multi-file documents and looked at what it would take to implement a solution for your organization. The session is best suited to content managers and information architects.
