When using the OnBase Integrated Office Viewer with the OnBase Web Client, Microsoft Office documents can be viewed in a new window. When documents are viewed in this manner, the main Client window displays a message explaining that the document is open in a separate window.

Note:

If you are hosting your own Microsoft Office online server, the Application Server, Web Server, and Office online server, must be accessible to the users opening documents in the Web Client.

To configure the Web Server to open Office documents in a separate window:

  1. Open the web.config file for the Web Server in a plain-text editor.
  2. Locate the <appSettings> section of the web.config file.
  3. Within the <appSettings> section, paste the following:

    <add key="openWopiDocumentsInSeparateWindow" value="true" />

    When set to true, documents accessed by the OnBase Integrated Office Viewer in the Web Client are viewed in a separate window. When set to false, documents are opened in the main Web Client window.

  4. Save and close the web.config file.
    Note:

    WOPI settings for the Application Server will override the settings in the Integrated Office Viewer web.config file.
