Not sure if you hope that you can save your Word file back on the
server, but that doesn't work. Not sure maybe with Sharepoint or so,
but not in a normal IIS configuration.
So, the only thing you can do is save it on the client and since you
need to specify where you wanna save the file, only the SaveAs button
is enabled.
Why is that a problem?
