What version of SharePoint are you using? WSS 3.0, MOSS 2007, SharePoint 2010???

FPRPC is completely incorrect and irrelevant

WSS 3.0

With WSS 3.0 your only viable option is to use Windows SharePoint Services Web Services[^]. With SharePoint 2010 however you the option to use Client Object Model which offers more capabilities than Web Services

the above method is bool so it return whether its check out or not , it change the status of the document only , but it doesnt check out the document to sharepoint draft folder

Of course, it isn't meant to do that. The item goes to the draft folder when being edited. With this method you are not editing, only checking in/out.

i suppose to edit the document, for that what i should do ? i have to check out after edit i should check in the document through office 2007 itself..

If you are opening the document from SharePoint then there is nothing else you need to do. Word will coordinate with SharePoint and do the Checkout when opening, there will be a message to the user to do so, and the checking in when saving. There is nothing you need to do programatically for this to happen.

If i open from sharepoint means you are correct, but i suppose to do this operation from my asp.net application.

There is only so much you can do. If you could open and checkin/checkout from any other application there would be no point in having SharePoint; just maintain your own database and versioning system. When you open a Word document from SharePoint there is a connection established between the two. You are attempting to place a third component in between where the connection is from your ASP.NET app and SharePoint, Word then knows nothing about SharePoint nor does SharePoint know anything about Word. IMO, you should re-evaluate your design and requirements.
