-> For your purpose I would write a small Product that
-> subclasses OFS.Folder and overrides either PUT() or PUT_factory()
-> to handle the storage of the documents on your own. 
-> Look either in the .py files in lib/python/OFS for examples or
-> in the CMF sources.

	Ack!  You just stepped WAY beyond my level of Zope expertise.

	Before I dive into (a) how to create a Product, (b) the PUT() and
PUT_factory() APIs, and (c) the OFS and/or CMF sources, I just want to
confirm one thing: I must write my own custom code to do this.  There is
no config file or U.I. option for specifying what "type" an uploaded file
is.  Is that true?

	If so, my demo schedule just jumped from 3 days to a couple of
weeks.


Thanks,
