Hi Bob,
I want to know if we can compare and merge versions of a document
in Share point ? I know that there is a feature in Word for comparing and
combining document changes.Is it the option i use for comparing and merging
versions of a document or is it valid only for document changes.
I would like to know if i can insert movie clips using Sharepoint?
If i can, could you please give me the procedural steps to go about it in
Sharepoint.I was unable to apply Themes to a word document which i saved in
the html format.Could you please give me the procedural steps to go about
that? and i never found an option to create a framed web page in Word 2007.

I really appreciate your help in this regard. :-) Thanks in advance!

Hi Preeto,

Well, I'm still not sure I'm following you correctly :)

The old File=>Versions feature is gone from Word 2007. Document management and version control at that level is provided in the MS
Office 2007 Sharepoint Server with Windows Sharepoint Services v3 and you may want to use the link below to check with the folks in
the Sharepoint group.

Collaborative document management is done by checkin/checkout to to a sharepoint library or other document management product
(See File Button=>Word Options=>Save=>Offline editing options...

I haven't tested Sharepoint libraries using Word produced .HTM rather than .doc or .docx files. Word 2007s feature set and
capabilities are basically unchanged from the 2003 version (i.e. MS isn't working on improving or enhancing that feature set). You
can still insert links and apply pre-2007 Themes (Themes have a new meaning and implementation in Office 2007) and you can do frames
in Word 2007, but it's not an easy to maintain file approach.

For doing web pages you may want to look at two of the 2007 Microsoft Offerings, (MS Office Frontpage split into two targeted
products)

MS Office 2007 Sharepoint Designer - for sharepoint site mgmt
http://office.microsoft.com/sharepointdesigner
MS Expression Web - for non-sharepoint website work

Hi Bob,
I seem to understand that versioning and creating web pages can be
done only in that particular system where the sharepoint server's installed
and thats precisely what i mean when i say "accessed at the server end".If
versioning has to be implemented I would like to know whether versioning and
creating web pages can be done from within Word 2007.
In word 2007,a document can only be saved as a web page.Can i
insert a movie clip,create a frame for a web page and apply themes for a web
page using Word 2007?or can it only be done through the share point server? I
noticed that pictures can be inserted in web pages using share point
server.Is that the only feature which is still valid?

I really appreciate your help.Thanks a lot! >>
