Web Folders

WebFolders allow users to access, create, and manage DynamicIntranet folders and documents directly with their desktop applications. adenin WebFolders are based on the Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) protocol. WebDAV can be used by a variety of popular applications and operating systems like Windows Explorer, Microsoft Office, Macromedia Dreamweaver or Mac OS X.

For example users can browse the DynamicIntranet repository directly from Microsoft Windows® Explorer, which provides the ability to conveniently drag and drop documents and folders between their desktops and DynamicIntranet. By simply double-clicking on a document, user’s can open it for viewing and editing directly in its native application, such as Microsoft Word.  There is no need to reupload documents to DynamicIntranet after editing, saving time and reducing the risk of user error. With WebFolders DynamicIntranet becomes an integral part of a users local desktop environment.

Version Control & History
WebFolders are completely integrated with the version control & change history of the adenin Document Management.

For instance, if a file is opened in MS Word, the WebFolder server makes an automatic check-out of the document. If Word is closed without saving the document, the check- out will be undone. If a new version is saved in Word, the WebFolders will check-in a new version automatically.
