The alternative is Microsoft Sharepoint Portal Server, which I wanted to avoid.... What is the cause for the Problem?

Consider using Webdrive as an alternative. -aj --On Freitag, 30. Mai 2003 15:40 Uhr +0200 volker.wend@efgbsh.de wrote:

He folks,

I try to create a folder in Zope for some folks with winword for shared documents. I thought we could use webdav to access those files and edit them... But each time I open a file from within winword vi the webdav port, winword opens the file in read-only mode.

If I create a new file and save that multiple times, everything works fine. Sometimes I even can open the file in read-write mode and than suddently I can only open them read-only. I checked in "WebDAV Lock Manager" but the file is not locked.

Any Ideas or hints for debugging ?
