What is the best way to have linked about 40,000 files (mostly word &amp;&nbsp;excel) to 4000 documents in a nab. The size of the file is about 4GB in total.<br />
<br />
Should these files be in a seperate database, the same database, should we use hotspots, embed etc!!! <br />

storing/linking word and excel files

Lotus Software produced the Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheet program, and later developed Lotus Notes, a groupware and email system. Following its acquisition by IBM, the Notes and Domino client/server collaborative platform were expanded to include functions such as email, calendars, to-do lists, contacts management, teamrooms, discussion forums, file sharing, microblogging, instant messaging, blogs, and user directories. IBM also release SmartSuite, a comprehensive office suite, and followed that with Symphony, unrelated to the Lotus suite of the same name.
