This might be more of an IIS question but is there a way of hosting a
document (think Word or Excel) within a web site that allows a user to not
only download and edit it but also save changes directly back to the web or
web server (without requireing a user to reupload the document?
Pretty sure that I have seen this kind of functionality within SharePoint
but I don't have a current install of that and ultimately I want to do this
myself for a possible project that I am working on.
Any suggestions or ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Andrew

You would need some sort of third party software installed on the client to
download the file, save it somewhere to make changes and then upload it back
to the server. In addition, the software would have to know how to upload
the document back to the server.

1) install a webdav library on the webserver. this allows webdav aware
applications (like office), to edit documents on the server. (sharepoint
does this)
2) add a checkout/download and upload/check feature using standard file
request and html fileupload for non webdav aware applications (sharepoint
does this also).

Shane,
I looked into this a bit more after posting and it appears that there is
functionality directly baked into Word and Excel (and who knows what other
MS programs) that makes them SharePoint aware and able to save directly to
SharePoint over some type of HTTP protocal.
So, it is possible to utalize that functionality with my own web site?
