Scott,

By default the Notes database only stores the key(s) (the fields you use to
connect the file to the Notes document). But, the keys are stored in Notes
documents, so you will be creating documents. However, they shouldn't take
that much storage since they only contain the keys. Also, remember that DECS
isn't that fast. Don't expect it to perform that well on large files.
