SharePoint Portal Server as a Server Repository

[Bloody_Nokia_Adept]

Hi,

Is it possible somehow to set SharePoint Portal Server as a Server Repository? I didn't saw such option in the repositories list.

For now, in case of opening file from there EA opens it as a temporary internet file and doesn't performs any saving back on exit. As a result I've lost all my changes.

The only way to process on SharePoint diagrams I've found was to:
1. check out file
2. save it locally
3. edit
4. upload it back
5. check in

I don't like this approach. Do someone have any ideas?
Thanks

Either you use something CVS-compliant or you have to wait for Sparx to enable Sharepoint access.

I'm surprised MS hasn't released an ODBC driver for Sharepoint ...

My guess is that this is because of the way Access is handled with http.  Here is what happens when you open an access file from sharepoint.
1. Downloads the access file into your browser cache
2. Allows you to edit it as normal.
3. Does not automatically post it back to the SharePoint site.

By default, files with .mdb extensions are blocked from SharePoint for just this reason.
