    We have carefully reviewed this idea, and based on our understanding of it, do not plan to support direct checkin & deliver of Office files from Office into Jazz SCM/WebDAV. Our direction will be to support source control of Office documents using the EWM Windows Shell integration from within Windows Explorer (initial support in Windows 7). Although we are closing this request, please open a new RFE to share feedback on how we can improve the experience (simply workflow) of doing this using the Shell integration. We value your feedback and thank you for allowing us to partner with you in developing our products.
