Hi,

Could you try connecting to the WebDAV server using Network Places. Select Start->My Network Places, then Add a new network place, enter the URL.

Is IE set as your default web browser ?.

Cheers

Ok, using the Network Places as you mentioned, I can open a webdav explorer on Alfresco spaces, and drag&drop files.

But editing Word documents from a webdav explorer still fails : the document is empty when being opened in MS Word. Copying it back to local disk produce a 0 byte file.
It should not be related to permissions as I logged as admin. The space is not controled by any rule/action either.
IE is set as my default web browser.

Here is the debug webdav log for these actions :
- copy document to webdav space
- edit document (opens empty)
- close document

Any idea ?

Reinstalling Windows Web Folder client (as explained in http://forums.alfresco.com/viewtopic.php?t=385) didn't help.

But upgrading to Office 2003 did solve the problem.
