Subject: I am making very interesting progress with the slide webdav
framework.However,I have two very serious issues 

Hello People,

I am making very interesting progress with the slide webdav framework.
However,I have two very serious issues about how webdav/Slide engine
manages the creation of a new documents.
ISSUE I
============
I have tried to save a new document from Ms Word into the slide server
thru the webfolder. But all I get is a file permission and network
error.
How can I create new documents on the server from proprietory
applications that support webdav (e.g MS Word 2000,
XP)???????????????????
I succeeded in moving documents (from the Hard drive) to the server thru
the Put(String path, File file) method of the WebdavResource client from
my Java application. The only issue I have with this is that the
document must be existent on the local machine first.
I do not like this constraint. I want to be able to launch the Word
processor, create the document and click a save menu and successfully
throw my newly created document into the DAV server.
Can anyone help me on how to go about this objective of creating a new
document on the server from a Word Processor like Ms Word.
Pls permit me to report this; I could update changes to a document thru
the word application to server.But this means that the document already
exists on the DAV server.
I will appreciate all helps in form of advice, direction, guidance, our
sample steps on how to go about creating a new document on the DAV
server from the word processing application.
ISSUE II
============
2) I noticed that when I open a document from the server thru the right
application though, the SaveAs menu is not disabled. This means that an
unauthorized user can steal the document by just saving it on the local
drive.
Could someone comment on how to prevent this?

I do hope that I will be encouraged by your response to my questions.
I will be grateful to hear sometin from everyone.
I thank you all in advance.
