Allow different agents to edit the same document

[Craig, William]

Fuad,
We do something similar.  We create the document from template and bind it to our workflow container EmpInfoDoc defined as an object type wf_doc.  Then the next step you can pass in the document in the container and use object wf_doc method edit.  This will allow changes to be made and saved to the existing document.
 
Thanks,
Bill

Hi WUGers, 

I hope at least one of the WUG gurus out there can help me with this problem. 

I am creating a workflow with an attached word document as a starting point. I first use a 'document from template' step to create a new Word document. The initiator would be able to create it and save. When it goes to the next agent, how is it possible for the agent to edit the same document and save it? I cannot use the same 'document from template' step since this will always create a new document. I tried to bind the doc as an attachment, but this can only be displayed, not modifiable. 

Appreciate if someone can help me. 

Thanks in advance. 
Fuad
