Hello everyone. I was wondering if there was a way to have my downloads to not open as read only (.doc, .xls, ect.) My users need to be able to open the document, make edits, and click save to save back those changes. We have this running on a WebDAV server, so it should work fine. I am assuming I have to make my links direct links some how. If there is a way to default this, that would be great. Thanks in advance.

Hi
Whilst it may sound eminently desirable that is not a straight forward operation. A Download is not just the file that is downloaded, it is description, sample images, and several other items of information.
You can set up a user to edit all the other items but not the file itself. The existing file can be replaced or even deleted.
Also the 'opening' of the file is a browser dependent issue
So I guess the answer at this time is not really.
