Alright I got another question!

My question is probably very simple for all you network gurus but I am trying to figure something out. I am setting up a windows 2003 server (my first experience with windows 2003). On this network I would like the client machines to pull everything from the servers (i.e. Microsoft Word is used off the server). Now my question is first, how do you set up a testing server so that I can test updates patches and so on and then when I feel they are alright to put onto the network they propagate with almost a click of a button? Secondly how do I set up the server so that it runs programs I choose and when the clients wants to open a .doc file it will ask the server to run Word. I know if I keep looking I will be able to find it, but I would still like to know how others have done it or are doing on their current networks.
