WebDAV and Authentication built into IIS should easily solve this problem
since it is designed for it. You don't need anything custom at all; just
have to configure the right things.
Now, I am very confused by what you are doing. Can you describe exactly
what you are trying to accomplish, not how you think it should be done.
My guess based on what you have said is that you want:
1. Allow authenticated users to open/edit/save Office documents
2. Perform the authentication/authorization with managed code
3. Prevent unauthorized users from doing anything.
Is this correct? Is there anything else missing?

I developed an alternative that downloads the file with the appropriated content-type, but when the user try to upload the file, he don't known where to place! I need to download/Change/Save a office file without user interation. Do you known how? What about WebDav.Net, is a product of IndependentSoft. Can this resolve my problem?
