   Optional ByVal UpdateFromServer As Boolean = False _

The file name must be encoded with the object ID. The object ID is automatically appended to the file name if the object is opened from M-Files. The disk drive letter and the first folder level (the vault name folder) are left out of the path.

For example: Documents\By Class\Application\Document Template for Word (ID 84).doc

This method is available only if M-Files API is used in the client interface mode.
