SharePoint - We need the File Open dialog to support WSS versions.

Does Microsoft plan on upgrading the File Open dialog to support Sharepoint
Document Libraries with Versions?

For example, I want to open an old version of the document and compare it to
a new version (red-line comparison). The only way to get the old version is
to restore it, which would overwrite the current version.


Please Help Microsoft!

Warning to all: this identical question was also posted to .portalserver
where oddly enough the subject said it was a MOSS question.

Bob, please in future post any one question to one SP newsgroup only to
avoid duplication of effort on the part of responders.

Using Sharepoint 2010 for data storage but still running full Access client with vba and normal forms SharePoint Some time ago, Albert Kallah wrote that with Access 2010 it was possible to store access 2010 data on Sharepoint 2010 but still run the Access client in windows much as a "normal" access client accessing the data on Sharepoint 2010. sits on SharePoint. You can also have the application sit on SharePoint and a copy gets pulled down sure local machine when you click on and on the SharePoint site, you will need access installed for this to occur. So, in this case we even replication via the internet. This seems much slicker. Again my interest is data on sharepoint 2010 and use normal windows / Access clients on each user's PC. I am not

Moving to SharePoint - Advice? SharePoint I have had several clients ask about putting their Access database on the web. So the inevitable any longer: I am going to have to get up to speed on SharePoint - specifically as it relates to porting Access 2010 dbs and linking the two. Any advice other resources that might be helpful. Also, I imagine I will have to purchase some SharePoint hosting for development and testing, correct? Anyone have any recommendations for inexpensive hosts for single-person developers? Thanks in advance for any assistance!
