How to open an Office 2007 document inside an Internet Explorer 7 window?September 24, 2007 17:53

Trying to build a document preview window in Sharepoint, I noticed that it is no longer possible to stream a Word document inside a browser window. This problem occurs when you use Office 2007 in combination with Internet Explorer 7 and is behavior by design. Microsoft decided on this behavior to increase overall security and usability.
