Displaying a document????
Hi all! I have been having some trouble with my team's new Sharepoint site. I an the site admin for our site. I took a class one year ago so it is all coming back to me slowly. One thing that seems to pass over me is how to display a document within a page
without a user having to click into the document or have the doument open in Word, Visio, etc.
For example, I have a few sections in my QuickLaunch Bar that contain document libraries, lists, etc. I want to be able to have a link in this bar that says "Team Overview" for example. I want user to be able to click on this and have it open within the
sharepoint site. I assume this would be a web part? I tried this with a Page Viewer web part and linked it with a Word Doc and another I set linked to a Visio document. However, when you click on these....they open an actual Word or Visio document. I want
them to open within Sharepoint, I assume as a webpart.
For example, in my Documents section in the quicklaunch bar, under this I have Team Overview. I want users to click on this and it should open a Wod doc or visiop document for example within SP. I assumed I might need to create a link to the doc in the doc
library but everytime I try to get the path to the doc, by clicking on it...it opens in a new Word window, etc. Frustrated.
Thanks!
