Well,
Aanother view might be that the answer was completely apropriate, but
your questions was not, as you omitted crucial information aout your office
requirements.

Subject: RE: Force opening PF attachments as Read-Only?
The document management suggestion was inappropriate because we have a
single document that 2 people have modify rights to and another dozen or so
people can read. So deploying a DMS is an expensive solution when the
problem boils down to preventing 2 people from modifying one particular file
at the same time. Especially if there is an inherent method within Exchange
to prevent the problem from happening in the first place, which is really
all I wanted to know.
Thank you for your answer though.
Jason

The answer was correct. What Ed left out was the "No." at the front in
answer to your question of whether there is any way to prevent multiple
editors of an attachment to a public folder.
Did you go look at the 80-20 web site and see what features there product
offers? What exactly makes the suggestion of a product which may solve your
problem inappropriate? There are also lots of others with different feature
sets as Ed alluded.
As for little value to the thread, complaining because you didn't get the
answer you wanted regardless of the veracity of the answer really has low
value.

"Deploy a real document management system"? Not only does this suggestion
not asnwer the question I asked, it is completely inappropriate for my
particular situation, and adds little value to this thread.

Deploy a real document management system, one that has the capability to
check out and check in documents.
http://www.80-20.com is one that integrates with Exchange. There are many
others that may or may not integrate with Exchange.

When a user has a Public Folder attachment open, other users can also open
the same attachment and make changes. Is there any way to prevent this? For
example, to force the document to open as read-only when someone else has it
open?
