Managing Chat Documents
An aspect of exchanging Chat messages about any aspect of the project is attaching related documents and similar files to a message. At any point, you might want to check what documents you have sent and/or received and perhaps perform some management function on them. You can do this through the 'Manage Chat Documents' dialog.
