I tried to use different applications with WebDAV shares and for me it behaves like a normal drive (I can open files from it, edit and then save). I tried with Paint, IrfanView, Photoshop (but did not try yet with Word). One thing which I noticed is that working with WebDAV shares in this way is very slow (5 times slower even). I think it is better to work on a local copy of the file, then upload it to WebDAV. -- Alexandru Stanoi System Developer eZ Systems | http://ez.no -- Components mailing list Components@lists.ez.no http://lists.ez.no/mailman/listinfo/components
