Docova Update Nov 19, 2009

November 19, 2009 by Gary Walsh

Just a quick Note to keep you up to date on what we are up to with Docova.

I just posted a beta release of our new Docova Explorer and Web components to the Docova Support instance.   This version allows you to create folders on the fly, when you drag and drop emails...even if you do not have Docova open in the browser. (see the flash video links at the bottom of this email if you have not seen them).

Not knew you may be saying...

What is new and exciting is the additional work we have done to support Microsoft products.  All of the email integration features (mail acquire, import messages, embedded emails, .....) now work with Outlook/Exchange.  That includes the drag and drop of emails and folder creation on the fly, which was missing from our prior release that supported Outlook.   Several Docova customers do not have Notes for email...so this will be of interest.

Our plan is to package this as an Outlook/Exchange connector as there is a dll and some additional setup required for some fo the features.  Additional connectors are pending as well.

Also included....

- Deeper integration with MS Outlook and Exchange...Docova is now available off the MS Office Menus  (including Office 2000..as per many requests)
- Works in Terminal Services environment
- Right click folder creation when saving from MS Office applications
- Check-in sensitivity dialog in MS Office, that is, when saving to Docova, senses if the particular file is already checked out and provides users with a dialog to save and check-in or save and keep-checked-out.

Docova Explorer and Docova Web Components have been tested in the following environments using both session and basic authentication methods.
.NET 2.0 through .NET 3.5 and all service packs.
Windows XP
Windows Vista (32bit)
Windows 7
MS Office 2000, 2003, XP and 2007

Here is a quick video clip to show you how the Drag Drop works.
