Thanks for the answer and let me try to explain my concern better.
If we introduce XWiki in our organization, it will have to coexist with
other information stores. Currently, most people use Word and other Office
applications to create documents and place them on Windows shares or network
directories.
There will be many times when people using XWiki will want to point to such
existing documents, without having to import them into XWiki or move them
onto a Web server.
Unless there are other best practices that I am not aware of (and in which
case I would love hear about), people will need to insert links (anchors) to
what I called "external documents".
Does this make more sense?
Thanks,
Olivier

Hi,
I'm not sure I understand your question.
You can point to files stored on the webserver. All the skin files (css and
image) are retrieved that way. Let's not forget that XWiki outputs plain old
HTML, and you can always include HTML content in a document.

Hi,
Is it possible in a page to point to a document/file on the file system? If
yes, does clicking on the link open the file a new window?
Thanks,
Olivier
