sys_attachment_doc Table

[#1]

Does anyone know what the sys_attachment_doc table is used for or how it goes with sys_attachment table?

[#2]

Just a note:

Copying attachments through this method takes up the resources and affects the applications performance. I think it's because of the query to the sys_attachment_doc table which has over 300,00 records for our instance.

Hi ,

We have a requirement of copying the data from the attachment to an interface table. Can this also be achieved ?

Thanks,
Vidhu
