ABSTRACT:
Multimedia distributions (documents, messages, etc.) on a data processing network are automatically assigned specific attributes based on the specific types of media (audio, text, etc.) contained in the distribution. First, specific attributes are associated with specific types of media. Then, the distribution is searched to determine the types of media contained therein. The attributes that are associated with those types of media present in the distribution are assigned to the distribution. The distribution may contain multiple objects. The search for media types can be limited to those objects in the distribution having predetermined relationships.
