Managing the location of fulltext documents in my Endnote 9 library

Hi everyone, 

I am wondering if anyone has any ideas about how I can make
Endnote assist me identify articles by the following
categories, related to the location/existence of fulltext:

1. freely available online
2. attached pdf or other doc
3. photocopied hardcopy
4. within book held in bookshelf
5. no fulltext copy held

I would love it if I could colour-code entries to make this
clear. At the moment, most of my database falls into
category 2, that is, I have the pdf and I have attached it
as an image (rather than link to pdf which means links are
severed if I decide to move my data files, which I will do
eventually). I have the image field shown in display fields
so I can see whether I have the pdf or not. But image field
won't display anything but the paperclip - thus can't use
that to denote that I have the fulltext via other means. 

Also, if the only solution is to code a field (say, label)
with text categories to denote this - is there an automatic
way of getting all articles with attached images (ie. pdfs)
to show the text "attached pdf or other doc" in
the label field? Or do I have to manually enter this?

thanks
monica
