Redirection URL when opening Office Document in the browser

[Timo Kauppi]

Hello!
We have developed quite nice document management system, which uses XP's Web
Folder's nicely. You can open a Word Doc and work with it and save it
through Word's own Save-button. Everything OK so far.

The problem is, when you open a document through web UI, XP downloads it to
the Temp Internet folder, and you work locally with the copy. To simplify
user's action, how can I bring back to Word a WebDAV-URL to save a document?
The URL would be something like
https://www.xyzxyzxyz.com:9000/78788/98678/Doc.doc.

Hopefully someone can tell me where to find more info?

Thanks,

Timo

Because your situation involves the interaction of Word and XP, I suggest
you also post your inquiry to the relevant Word newsgroup(s).
