2443.0. "Flagging Documents as Proprietary" by RESTRT::LATIMER (Eastern States Product Support) Fri Mar 19 1993 20:50

I have a customer who is interested in "marking" their documents as 
company proprietary, possibly by using DOCDB to flag such documents.  I 
noticed that there is a new field in DOCDB called SENSITIVITY, described in 
the Application Programming Reference Guide, Volume 1, page 8-11, as follows:

SENSITIVITY	Field available for use by X.400-compliant applications.
		Possible values are:

			0, indicating that the document is not sensitive
			1, indicating that the document is personal
			2, indicating that the document is private
			3, indicating that the document is company confidential


Does this field sound like a good candidate to use for this purpose?  Is this
field currently used at all, and would I be trampling on some possible 
future use for it...or is this exactly the type of application it was
designed for?

I also read in Tony's Version 3.0 book that there is a field called
CUSTOMER (6 bytes) available for customer use in DOCDB.  Would this be
better to use?

Or is there an alternate method preferable to any of this?

Thanks for any suggestions.

    Nancy,
    
    interesting that SENSITIVITY is documented and CUSTOMER isn't since
    CUSTOMER has been in ALL-IN-1 since v2.0
    
    I'll avoid possible use of this field type questions - unless you've
    seen the PID that is - but all these fields are documented in the
    Internals and Data Structures manual which i'm sure you have a copy of!
