ok but it works fine via a webfolders.
The read-only issue occur only if I open my word document via internet
explorer. 
As suggest Micheal, maybe the internet explorer is not a webdav client ?

Just a hunch here, but an older email from Dr. Nevermann (who
implemented DeltaV for Slide) talks about locking wrt Office.. This may
be why it is read-only, or it could be just simple permissions that
Office sets up on the doc so others can't write except the author..
Anyway, here is the snippet:

The auto-version value "locked-checkout" is ideal for the Microsoft
Office tools (Word, etc.). When a file is opened from a WebFolder, Word
LOCKs the resource. While the file is open, Word refreshes the LOCK from
time to time. When the file is saved the first time, the PUT is
automatically preceeded by a CHECKOUT. Further saves keep the file
locked and checked-out. When the file is closed, Word issues an UNLOCK
which automatically is preceeded by a CHECKIN operation.


HTH,
James
