Hi

Is it possible to insert a Word or Excel doc in FP that automatically updates as and when the underlying document changes. I have Word and Excel documents that I make changes to and I would like my web server to use those updated documents, without having to open FP and update my website manually each time I make changes to those docs

Thanks
Allan
 
Allan,
FP itself doesn't do this. There's a utility by Jimco that can
publish files at regular times though. That could be useful, but typically
it will publish an entire web. Perhaps if the files were in their own subweb
you could set that particular subweb to publish every X numberof hours. You
can find the Jimco utilities at: http://www.jimcoaddins.com/utils.htm

Hope this helps,
