I just got assigned a project at my this jewelery company. Basically, we have binders/notebooks of documents i.e company policy, round robins etc. (ranging from 50-200 pages a binder). All of the pages of the content are pretty much already typed out in .doc format. Essentially, I need a way to post these binders of doucments on a local intranet webpage for others to view. Keep in mind that eventually we will need to update these documents right from the webpage itself. So people would have the option of searching for a specific word i.e. 'rolex' or 'medical form' and would be displayed results of the location. In addition, my boss would like me to be able to document what changes have been made on the doucments that have been updated....i'm not looking for code really, but does anyone know of software capable of performing this or can anyone give me a tip or foundation of where to start? i really appreciate it...thanks

If your company uses IE to view the intranet and have word on their machine and have write access to those files then they can do all of this. Documenting changes could be left to the changers by setting up the word settings to change the color and add the date.
High tech:
You would need to add these docs to either some sort of document server or database. You will need to program the interaction between the user and the documents. Then you would need to write to word docs when they need to be downloaded.
MS may have a word document server that could handle this. You should look and see if there is something already out there that will do this. I think adobe has one for PDFs that will do this.
