I store the electronic files (e-mags, newsletters, professional papers, etc.) on the server, but need a way (web-based?) for employees to access and search the files.

ok i suggest this for alot of companies cause its cheaper when you consider there is no licensing fees and after using the unix linux and microsoft alternatives its easier. Try an apple xserve and osx server they can help you with this stuff and yes they are completely compatable with windows. i find alot of companies i work with use the macintosh backbone and install windows machines for the end user so they have the power stablity and easy of use that comes with mac without having to retrain all their employees

probably easier to use an online file service like box.net or rapid share. try a search for online file storage

you can use \nif networed: ftp, sftp, ncftp, directory sharing, email, nfs,\nssh\n\nif not networked: floppy, cd, dvd, usb pen drive, fingers (re-type he he)

IF this is useful, you can add the files to a site first.  Go\n   to your documents page and put them in folders.  Then\n   just open the documents and when you use them keep them\n   down on the bottom line by minimize.

Use Windows Explorer's search function if you can.

Yes you can use ASP coding with Access database or SQL database to create an online directory of employees. Codings are readily available in http://www.haneng.com/lessons.asp.

You just put it in a shared folder and when people use it , it will search your shared folder, if you specifically want to share it with certain people then I suggest you try out something like so \n\nwww.wfshome.com\n\nThat or setup and FTP server or something like that :)\n\nbullet ftp is a good example, so is cute ftp :)

It is better to print emails and put them in a 3-ring binder.\n\nDue to legal issues, most companies do not want electronic trails stored forever.

You won't find one. Localities that small don't have the resources to support e-file.

As far as I know you cannot do such a thing.  But what you can do, is to share the folder that the file is in, but set the permissions of the folder (and files) to allow only a small set of users to access them.  This way, only those authenticated with a valid user/pass can retrieve the files.

I suggest using a filesharing system such as WinMX or LimeWire.  The Gutenberg Project (prob misspelled) also has loads of ebooks available for free.

You would have to use a programming language to open the database and access the data enclosed.  Typical languages include ASP, PHP and java.  It depends on what operating system your web server is running and how familiar you are with programming.

A cross-server distributed filesystem search would be QUITE difficult to implement in PHP alone. However, you could architect a script that runs on each server, and writes to a master database with file server, path info, and metadata.\n\nAssuming the files are in the same path on each box, you could use PHP to exec the Unix find command, with a matching pattern on image files (*.gif, *.jpg, *.jpeg, *.tiff, etc.). Then iterate through the result lines and make each one a write to a remote database.\n\nThat's just one idea. The problem is either really complicated or really easy. I can't quite tell what your problem space is, but this should give you some catalyst to get going. Good luck!

Instead of having the information emailed to you persist it in a database and then on the "fields" applications retrieve said information from the database.   \n\nThis can easily be accomplished with any of the serverside technologies (Java, php, asp, asp.net,etc...) and a good database (mySQL, Oracle, MS SQL, or Access)

That's the way to do it. You might also check under Explorer's options.
