I'm using the Knowlegde Base template and added a field to upload a file.

Wich in my case is a Word document.
Is it possible to see a preview of the document on the list page?
It would be nice if there was a possibility to past a complete Word document in a textfield.

This is possible, accept that it isn't possible to paste the pictures as wel.
Otherwise I have to paste all manuals by hand, using a rich text editor.

So Anyone? Thanks in advance....

You can use one of Rich Text Editor controls that support pasting from Word.

I've allready tried, but it seems that none of these copies the pictures as well.........
The handiest thing would be an import function cause I have a lot of manuals in Word allready.

That's correct, you won't be able to paste images. It doesn't work this way.
You can upload Word documents to server/database however you won't be able to preview them. The only option is to download them to your local box and open in Word (which needs to be installed).
I would convert Word documents to HTML and upload all of them to one of folders on the website. Then you can either paste HTML to Rich Text Editor or simply post a link to converted document.
