How EV File Archiving placeholders handles linked files.

DSI
Level 2
We are currently evaluating EV and I have a question about file links.  When a folder is archived and you recall a file that has links associated to it, will the linked files (also in the same archived folder) appear in the recalled file?  We use three programs that use links including Autocad 2004 & 2008 (xrefs), InDesign CS and CS3, and Powerpoint.  When a user opens a placeholder and that recalled file contains links I would hope the other links open too rather than us having to recall each file that is linked to the base file.

From my Point Of View, your Application would follow the Link which would trigger the Linked file to be recalled, too.

I would think that all files would be recalled.
