I'm assigning a Microsoft Word document to "upload_file". I suppose I can 
try other types of files such as simple text. I know that MSWord files are 
binary in nature. If this poses a problem then I am truely confused.

When the Zobject I'm working with is created. I can assign a word document 
to the upload_file property without issue. There are no errors. I am able 
to manipulate it, read/write it to a local OS file, etc. The only difference,
 is that on object initialization, I create the property instead of change 
it as it does not yet exist, using the manage_addProperty method. I pass 
the method REQUEST['new_file'] just like I did in the example I posted to 
the list.

Do you or anyone else have any other ideas. Maybe I need to creat the property 
in this case as well?
