upload a document

I am being little impatient about a problem which has occurred to me.
I say impatient because I have recently downloaded cocoon2 and I would like 
to know
if it is possible.

I want the user to upload a binary file like a word document.
Then by using RMIs I want to send the Word document to the RMI server.
where I would like then to store the word document in a database
and have the option of emailing the word document.

Is that possible by using cocoon2.

Yes.  Uploads are described here: 
http://wiki.cocoondev.org/Wiki.jsp?page=FileUploadsWithCocoon

and if you are using 2.1 you need to see 
http://wiki.cocoondev.org/Wiki.jsp?page=FileUploadsWithFlow (at the 
bottom if you're not using flow) and the javadocs for the new names and 
package of the multipart objects in the request.

You can of course interact with your RMI server but there is of course 
no existing "upload a file and send it to my RMI server" component - 
you'll have to build it yourself.  Cocoon is designed and built to make 
this very easy to do.
