Hello,

I am creating a simple CMS for a web site.

The web site will hold many documents and for that I created Documents table which holds information on each document such as:

Title, Description, Author, Url, ...

I would need to create the following functionalities:

1. Create a document and upload its file

2. Edit a document information and maybe change the file associated with it.

3. Delete a document record (info) and the file associated to it.

How should I do this?

Should I separate the create a document and upload a document (file)?

Maybe I should have a table with all files and every time I upload a file I would add a record to that table.

And then when I create a document I would insert its information and select one of the uploaded files.

Anyway, what is usually the best way to do this?

I think that having everything integrating would be better but I am not sure the way to go.

Thanks,

Miguel
