ASPRunnerPro General questions
J
 jawendell author

I have setup a database in version 7.0 of ASPRunnerPro to manage Microsoft Word documents. The basic application is in place, and I can add records for the documents to the table. When I click on the link to the document, the document is opened in Microsoft Word. My problem comes in when I edit the document, and then try to save the edits. I get the error message "Word cannot complete the save due to a file permission error.". The database is setup so the documents are being saved to the file system, and the owner and group have full privileges. Is there something that I am missing? Are there additional settings that control whether or not I can save changes to the documents?
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jerome Wendell

In "normal" setup documents are stored on the server, downloaded to the local temp folder and edited there. This means in "normal" situation you cannot edit documents right on the server.
What is your setup? Where documents are stored and how you setup them in ASPRunnerPro?

The field for the link to the document is a text field, and it is setup to edit as a file. After the document is edited, I want to be able to store a copy of the revised document on the server. Is this possible?
Thanks!

This doesn't answer my question.
What's the exact content of the text field that stores the link to the document?

The link is generated by ASPRunner when the document is uploaded. The name of the file is all that is displayed in the link.

Okay, I assume you use "standard" setup. In this case browser downloads file to some temporary directory on your machine and Microsoft Words edit file there.
There only way to upload file back is to use the upload on the edit page.
