Hi,

I need to check out a word document from the content server

for editing and check in the word document once the editing is done

(closing of ms word). I understand that that can be accomplished by

using ActionService.execute and passing "checkout" as its argument. My

code is as follows:

public void Checkout(Control ctrl, ArgumentList arg){

boolean retval = ActionService.execute("checkout", arg, this.getContext(),

this, new CallbackDoneListener(this, "returnFromCheckout"));

}

public void returnFromCheckout(String strAction, boolean bSuccess, Map map) {

String[] path = null;

Map items = (Map)map.get(CheckoutContainer.NEW_CLIENT_PATHS);

if (items != null){

path = (String[])items.values().toArray(new String[0]);

}else {

path[0] = "";

}

}

When

I execute my program, the document is checked-out but somehow, it

always opens up in adobe acrobat reader instead of ms word. I tried to

check out the document in da and it opens up fine (in ms word). Any

idea what went wrong?

    No idea what went wrong but anyways, why reinventing the wheel ? Webtop as well a Desktp Client come with a MS-Office intergration so you don;t need to do that yourself as it does it for you
