You're contradicting yourself, and I quote: "It is necessary for our users have access to this information from where ever they may be."
"We really don't want this info scattered about our clients networks. " Even if you accomplish what you want, NOTHING is stopping your users from printing the document and leaving it on a desk, doing a save as or whatever. Best way to control the "confidential" information is to NOT make it available on the Internet and force your users to use VPN to access that information. You really need to explain to your users what the risks are and what steps they need to take to prevent broadcasting your confidential information.

Many of the users are based at client sites and are currently using OWA for email access. We want to be able to publish company information (some of which may be confidential) to public folders. It is necessary for our users have access to this information from where ever they may be. The majority of the information is in "Office" format (.doc, .xls, .ppt) Question(s): Is it possible to change the way OWA (IE) handles these document formats (server side)? Currently users would have to download these documents to the local machine before viewing them. We really don't want this info scattered about our clients networks. What is the most appropriate way to handle this scenario? Ideas!
