    Hello,

    I am looking for a way to upload a document and track who has read it, and provide a way to require readers to acknowledge the contents after opening.

    I haven't found any way for a non-administrator to do this on Windows SharePoint Server 2007 without enabling some sort of auditing? Any suggestions?

    Thanks for your time.

    There's Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 and (Microsoft) Office SharePoint Server 2007.

    Your name of "Windows SharePoint Server 2007" is not correct and as it contains elements of both correct names I don't know which you mean.

    Please clarify.

    Hi,

     

    OOB Auditing solves your purpose to some extent.  You can specify audit for item read, edit, delete & so on.

    • To enable auditing go to site settings-> Slte collection audit settings
    • You can check the options for which all you need to enable auditing and click ok.
    • From that point of time the auditing starts.

    But this works for the whole site.

    Thanks,

    Hello,

    I don't see an option for Site collection audit settings, is this something that is enabled by default?

    Thanks for the help.

    Hi,

    Try adding this to your site URL _layouts/AuditSettings.aspx . This will directly take you to the site collection auditing.

    Thanks,

    Hi,

     

    Only site collection administrator can see the Site collection audit settings, please make sure you are the site collection administrator.

     

    For more information, please refer to: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint-server-help/configure-audit-settings-for-a-site-collection-HA010099726.aspx

    Hi

    Not sure if you have found a solution to this, but have you checked out DocRead ? It's an add-on for SharePoint that does exactly this. There's also a reporting feature to find out who hasn't confirmed reading.  Take a look : http://www.collaboris.co.uk/products/docread

    DocRead is certainly a good add-on with great functionality, but it is EXTREMELY expensive.
