Hi all,

I'm having a hard time converting / migrating content from different 
objects into CMF content objects or into ArcheTypes content objects. 
Textbased content-objects were easy, but objects that store either files 
or images were problematic.

Different scenarios that I have tried are:

1) move image data from Image into CMFDefault Image

Works when I use new_content_object.edit(file=ImageObject.data)

2) move from file into CMF Default File

I tried above, but it did not work - data was not stored into content object

3) move image / file into Archetypes content object

I tried what is below:
ArchetypesObject.setImage(ImageObject.data)

But the image did not go into Image field.


Any help or thoughts would be appreciated since there will easily be 
situations where I and others need to conver/migrate data from other 
forms into Plone portals into portal content types or into ArcheTypes.

Using in this instance Archetype1.0.1, Zope 2.6.0, CMF 1.3.2 and Python 
2.2.3.
