Hi,
how do you interact with Open Office? Is that through it's API, or do you call the executable?
Cheers, Bo

This is exactly what I'm doing for one for my customer.
The end-users have a secure access to a documents hierarchy (folders) via a portlet. A word document can be edited and save back to the server after some validation. Documents are stored into a repository (Slide) which can be used for CMS or DMS solution.
In order to validate word documents, we are using open office which is running in server mode. Open office is nice because it support the XML file format and can convert one document in many content type (RTF, PDF, HTML, Word, Excel, ....). Convertions via open office are more simple than using a series of XSL templates. It is just one method to call.
At the end, there is an official publication wich group together all documents edited by the 400 users. This is the most complex part. We are not using webdav because some users can edit their documents with word 97 :-) . So we are developing a word macro which can send a http put method to the server.
We are still under test. It is not a simple solution (jetspeed + slide + open office + EJB). So it takes time and I have not all my time to donate the CMS repository layer. After some common work with David, I'm trying to do it with some enhancement in the code.
If you want to help at least for the repository, you are welcome :-) Christophe

documents.
In that regard is there any tool that would display files directly fromthe harddrive. Also, is it possible to launch MS Word/Excel documents from
Jetspeed (clicking on the link ) and then edit them and save them back
directly to Jetspeed?
Any help, links are greatly appreciated, Leszek
