Chris helped me do this by modifying ePrints code, now if I need to do this
I do the following:

1. You upload all the files
2. You upload an additional xml file that takes the place of (or is combined
with )the abstract field and is marked as "shown first" The xml file
contains your abstract information and links to each of the documents.

I can't remember which files were modified (or how) but I'm sure Chris
knows.  You could probably use the same modifications.

Subject: [EP-underground] - Multiple files in eprints


Dear all
I sent this before but got no answer so am sending again in case 
anyone has words of wisdom. Maybe it is not possible to do what I 
want to do in which case I'll try a work-around the problem.

I have been given a very large work for the archive here and had 
to break it up into four PDF files so as not to crash computers that 
tried to open it. However, despite uploading all four files, only one 
file appears as a clickable link from the record, so it looks as if 
there is only one file of 100 pages instead of four files totalling 600 
plus altogether. Am I doing something wrong? Do I have to upload it 
as four separate records, or is there a way to force the option of 
displaying the four spearate PDFs? I marked the first PDF as 
Shown First and assumed the others would follow in a list, but this 
did not happen.
Any advice appreciated.
regards
Belinda
