Unfortunately the forum doesn't offer additional hosting for files etc. What you'd want to do is find somewhere that'll allow you host them, then link to them. If you are specific in the names of the filetypes that you want to be able to upload, I can add them to the list of files hostable on my File Hosting site.

You can upload your docs' to 4Shared. You can sign up, and have 5GB space. They have great service, you can even download a 4Shared Desktop, and upload documents directly from your desktop!:) it's quite easy to do. Unlimited uploads (until you reach 5Gb, but with MS Word documents, you should not have a problem with getting to full!) and unlimited downloads!

Will people have to log in to download the docs or can they just go in and download. Thanks Stu

You're Welcome! They do not have to sign up. All they do is just download it. Here is an example:Apple Wallpapers Pack 1 You do not need to download it, it's just an exampl:) edit: Also no they do not need to have .zip or .rar you can upload them directly.
