Yes Nick this helps, this is great help. The part i'm stuck on is how
to get the ASP.NET to impersonate a domain account that has write
access to that document library... In ASP.NET, I can store a document
as a file on a drive somewhere. But Sharepoint is storing it in its
database somehow, where do I point (ie using UNC) to save that
document. All you mentioned sounds great & possible, but i'm sure the
devil is in the details for newbies like us :)
