Hi all,

Did anyone achieve using DOORS 8+ "external links" in the following configuration :
- CITRIX server publishing DOORS 8.1 (or later)
- CITRIX client without DOORS

My concern is related to the access to DOORS objects from another application.

In fact, the external links are implemented by a custom protocol "doors:", which refers to a protocol handler located in DOORSHOME/bin on the server.

Should you try to follow an external link from a local application (say Microsoft Office), it fails because the client does not know the "doors:" protocol.

The only workaround solution I found was to publish also the Microsoft stuff on CITRIX ...

Thank you for any idea,

Hi Richard,

This is not an answer to your problem, but you may advise me on the following matter. We have put DOORS on Citrix but no other application. When we want to export a module view to MS Office applications, nothing happens. We can export to other formats like Text, rtf, spreadsheet, htm etc. What do we have to publish on the Citrix so that we can export the module views to MS Office applications?

So DOORS is installed on a machine that is running CITRIX MetaFrame Server. This machine needs to have WORD installed for export to WORD to work on that machine.
