Added documents are read only

Added documents are read only

Hi,
I use RDM Enterprise with sql server as data source.


In the session list i have created several folders with rdp servers and a folder where documents are being saved. These documents are saved directly into the database, not on a share or url. These documents can be emails, pdf, word, excel ect.
The problem i run into is, if i open a document it's a read-only document. Any changed on the document cannot be saved directly to the database.
Can this be done? Maybe i'm missing something ?
Thx !

Hi Albert Woudstra,

If you want to update a document that is currently saved in the database, you need to save it on your computer and update your document entry with the new version (right-click on the session -> Update Document).

Best regards,

Thanks for the reply Jean,

That solution will not work in our application. I have setup a network share where the documents will be saved and attached to the right folder.

Thanks again

Hi Albert,

I came across this help request while searching for a similar issue (in my case, using SharePoint instead). I'm not sure if this will help but its a viable solution with sharepoint and I've put in a feature request to have it added to RDM's native functionality.

Article which gave me proper syntax; http://superuser.com/questions/494203/how-to-access-webdav-using-windows-explorer-on-windows-7

Then I just call excel/word/powerpoint via "Run comand" with a Webdav path rather then URL (HTTP/HTTPS).
