Before you add a document to a document library (document library: A folder in which a collection of files is shared and the files often use the same template. Each file in a library is associated with user-defined information that is displayed in the content listing for that library.), you must be connected to Microsoft Office Project Server 2007 and a workspace site needs to be created for your project. Typically, a workspace site for your project is automatically created when you first publish a project, but if this hasn't happened, ask your server administrator (administrator: Sets up and manages user accounts, assigns permissions, and helps users with network or server access issues. This person can also manage and customize various elements in Project Professional and in Project Server.) about creating a workspace site for your project. Some workspace sites may need to be manually created by an administrator.
