That's what we were doing, but the users need the full functionality of Word, and they need to be able to save the document back. Sure, they could upload it - but the steps are huge. Instead we've created a drive that every workstation maps to under the same drive letter. Then, as Word launches, they can just "save" and the document is stored right back. They choose the document from a list generated through the browser, but the manpulation and saving of the file is easier directly through word than through a browser. Stephen.
