Sorry to be one of the "illiterate", but I've never used this. Always
good to know more, though, so I am trying to understand it.

I'm a bit unclear about 'access'. Are you saying that the file is not
sent over the net as a file, but opened as though it were a regular
local net file?

If the document is a Word document, for example, could it not contain
a virus, and thus 'bring it in' when the doc is opened?

Could I reference a readable file on any computer, anywhere? Why only
within the company?

Thanks,
