ABSTRACT:
A system and method of managing virtual documents is described. In this approach, a user database is set up on a network-connected computer. There are a number of virtual documents that are created by on other network-connected computers. These virtual documents have associated with them an attribute file having known header and field information. The virtual documents and their associated attribute files are sent from the other network-connected computers to the network-connected computer, which then categorizes and stores information from the virtual documents according to the contents of the attribute file.
