Office Document Editing using Rich Client
Hello all,
I'm currently working on a prototype for creating a rich client using which users can download documents downloaded from the server (check out), edit them and then send it back to the server (check in). For this purpose I'm working on a user control that has is signed (using SN utility). The moment I made a reference to the Word Object Library, I'm unable to compile. The compiler reports that "Interop.Word does not have a signed assembly". If I dont sign my assembly, I'm unable to see the control in the browser. Any ideas or suggestions as to how I could rectify this problem.
I would greatly appreciate any help.
thanks and regards,
Chris
I over came my previous problem by totally removing the Strong Name from my assembly and then explicitly using the Adjust .NET security tool to trust the assembly. I was also able to programmatically set the required permissions, basically creating code groups and assigining permission sets etc.
Now I need some other ideas from the guru's in here. My Rich Client (Winform control in IE)wordedit user control is capable editing a given word document.
I would like to use XMLHTTP from inside the Rich Client control to actually download a list of documents available in the server and then populate it in the browser in the Rich Client. When the user chooses a specific document to edit, I would like to download the document using XMLHTTP and then edit it. Once the user completes this process, I would use the same mechanism XMLHTTP to send the document back to the server.
I need some help in using XMLHTTP from within the Rich Client. Any ideas on this one? Also if anybody has any other suggestion, I would greatly welcome that.
thanks,
chris
