I was reading about content redirection and how if you double click on a .doc file on your local pc it can open your verison of word running on the Citrix server..

Well is it possible to do reverse content redirection.

I have a published app that needs to have excel on the citrix server also. Well we don't have the licenses for loading Office to the citrix server so I was hoping it was possible to push the information back to the local version of excel??

Thoughts???
 
That functionality has been asked to citrix many times throught their forum.
Right now it's no go. The security issues are to big.
You just want to start a local exe, but with this stuff, it's aslo easily possible to do a "format c: /q" on the client.
Untill this is 100% secured, that functionality will not be available.

Sorry for the bad news though.
