Office products have the libraries built-in to allow them to access webfolders, but other windows apps ( such as wordpad ) do not.
Maybe MS have not changed the original visio source enough to incorporate the webfolder library code.

Stefan,
I have not seen this problem with MS Visio documents but it is sounds like a problem I documented with another document management system I sometimes work with.
The problem we ran into was some MS Office documents can't be opened via url.

Our workaround was the client always had to open access files via the proprietary client software.

Subject: Opening MS Visio docs
Hello, has anybody experiences with opening MS Visio 2003 documents via a html link.
With Word, Excel etc. it works for me. But if click on a link to a Visio document, it is opened, it is even locked on the webdav server, but I can't save. The "save" button is called "update" ("Aktualisieren" in my german environment).
Has any body an idea?
Thanks in advance, Stefan
