Creating Document Workspaces

A document workspace is a Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services site that is centered around one or more documents. You and your colleagues can work on a document together in one of two ways. You and your colleagues can work together as a team directly on the document workspace copy, or each person can work on a copy that can be updated with changes that have been saved to the copy of the document workspace site. Creating a document workspace is as simple as sending a message with a shared attachment. As the sender of the shared attachment, you become the administrator of the document workspace, and the recipients become its members and are granted permission to contribute to the site. You must have a Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services site, which needs to be created by your system administrator.
