I have two different applications that run on the Citrix servers that will have attached documents. Formats include Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Autocad, JPEG, GIF, BMP.
I thought about using something like quickview + that would allow the users to view the documents, but didn't allow for editing them. This was a fine solution for one app but not the other. They want to attach a document and make it a work in progress, where as the ticket is opened by different people, then they edit the doc and save it.
I don't want to install the applications on the citrix servers and then have to keep up with licensing of those apps. What I would like to do is to be able to launch the apps that they already have loaded on there local machine. I have set this up to work but it seems to upload the entire app to the server and then runs it from there.
Is there anyway to tell the documents to launch in the local environment versus the server environment?
