Is there OLE objects in doors NG 6.0.1M1?

Hi,
from the documentations in the Web I saw that in every text attribute can be added Ole objects ,for example word Document(doc), this is true for Doors 9.5 . But is it true for Doors Next Generation?
Because I can click:
Artifact->Upload Artifact-> Browse Files and there I can choose zip,tar,avi,png etc.?
1. Are they embed as OLE objects? Or OLE objects are relevant only in Doors 9.x ,not in NG?
2. In Doors 9.5 you can attach a picture as picture or as OLE object is this choice available here?
3. From the import of the DB from 9.5 to NG, I have rtf files which are named like:
"OLE........some text"
why is this happening?

Hello
DNG supports "uploaded files" which provide a user experience comparable to Microsoft's OLE technology.  On the other hand, DOORS 9 does support OLE.

To answer your specific questions:
  1. They are "uploaded file artefacts" not OLE
  2. You can upload an image - that is an "uploaded file artefact" too.  "DOORS Pictures" are almost exactly the same as DNG uploaded images.
  3. I assume you mean "ReqIF import".  That representation is how DNG imports OLE objects from ReqIF packages. The names you see are the ones allocated by DOORS 9 when the package was created.

cheers
