Dynamic attachments possible?

Hello,
Is it possible with the 3.2-4 or 3.3-1 release to have a user add a dynamic number of attachments to an article? This functionality exists in the 2.2.x versions I know. When you create a class today, you may only have static fields in the class. You may add AN attachment, but what about several attachment? Does anybody know?

regards,
claÜs

There are a couple of ways of doing this. You can either create the attachements as child objects of the article or you can add them as related objects.

It is also possible to use the object relation list datatype to "embed" a list of files in an object.

Which solution is the best will depend a bit on your requirements and taste.
