EsHi Nachi,

I have a new problem now. First I could open and edit office documents in a
Webdav folder opened with IE (File - open - http://193.72.209.148/WebDAV as a
Web Folder) . Now I can't any more.
I created the webdav folder on a Windows Server 2003 with IIE 6.0 as follows:
under a website I created a virtual directory with the name
WebDAv and then selected a directory.
The rights of the virtual directory are read, write and browse.
Web Server Extensions: webDAV allowed.
>From Cutosm HTTP headers i removed all headers.
Anonymous and Windows authentication is selected.
When I change a Word documente I receve the following messages of this type:
The file is write protected (Celebrex.doc)
The documents in dis folder are not available. Probably the folder has been
moved or deleted or the connection to the server is not possible because of
network probles...
I can change a text documente with notepad a I can change the content of a
access database. But Word, Excell and Powerpont Documents can not be changed.
Do you know what I can do to solve this problem?
OS of client: windows XP SE IE 6.0 and Microsoft Office 2002 SP3

Regards
Ester
