Hello Jens and Arve Thank you for your suggestions.
Trying things out, I found that when I use the basexclient to CREATE DATABASE, and then ADD a docx, it is automatically unzipped. I then tried the webdav interface. I used BitKinex to copy a docx into the same database. It didn't get unzipped that way. Is there a reason for that, and a way to change that behaviour? thanks ..
