We are on a SharePoint environment and (though I am no expert) from what
I can tell, it is not friendly to storing non-Microsoft files. Maybe I'm
wrong, but it seems like version control and history only works well
with MS apps like Word. This obviously needs to change. I am looking
into DITA Exchange Server, whose reps are on this list, as a possible
solution to collaboration within SharePoint. I have no affiliation with
them, FWIW.

Hi
My company is looking at using Sharepoint to facilitate document sharing
and collaboration between the various teams. In addition, there are 3/4
help projects being developed in MadCap Flare.

I am not sure how I should word my question, so please bear with me -
but how does one use the two applications together? My boss wants me to
find out if Flare files can be used within SharePoint - what do you
think he means by that? Like I said, I don't know enough about
Sharepoint to even word my question properly - I am hoping some of you
have thought about it, or have had to address this issue in your
organizations.
Please advise.


Thanks
Shelly
