Display a windows folder in Sharepoint document library
I am wondering if it is possible to "map" and document library in SharePoint to windows folder ie. c:\myfolder. Or is there maybe a webpart where we can use the folder url as a parameter? We are pushing documents from one application to a folder on the network and would like to be able to view the documents of that network folder via sharepoint without having to duplicate the documents. Thank for the suggestions

Hi, You can try adding a Page Viewer Web Part to the page. After adding the web part to the page click on "Open the tool pane", and in the tools pane point the Page Viewer Web Part to file://servername/sharename This will allow you to see the contents of the file server on your SharePoint site.Hopefully that helps.Sincerely, Karl
