How to View an Existing Linked Document

Depending on the type of file you attempt to view, your browser may inform you of the location to which the file will be downloaded. Regardless of your selection of Open with or Save to Disk, the file is downloaded to the desktop.

1. Click Linked Documents on the Action Menu.
2. Click the underlined file name in the list of linked files.

Graphic and .txt files open in a default viewing window. For IE users, graphics linked using a UNC Path open in a browser window. See UNC Path and IE for Linked Documents for troubleshooting.

Select the Open with radio button or Save to Disk button. By default, the system recognizes the application that was used to create the doc.

You can modify an open file. Be sure to save the modified file with a new name and remember that it is on the Windows Desktop. After saving, the new file must be linked using the steps outlined in the topic How to Add a Linked Document.
