Re: Copy/Link of MS Office files

Unless you add the various file extensions to the internal browser list to render, these files will continue to be opened externally by their native application.

When Importing (Copy,Move,Link) data files (in your case MS Office files) into UR, the Item Type created is Document, the Detail Pane will always be the internal broswer for this Item Type.

Because the Detail Pane for a Document Item Type (data file) is the internal broswer, this Detail Pane will not accept text input.

If you want to add notes to this Item Type you will need to invoke the Item Notes Pane (Ctrl-5).

Otherwise, see this thread to create an info-header for imported data files:

Hope this Helps.
