Error when trying to save ms office docs to network share drive

C

Users can save ms office 2007 docs locally to their pc and copy over to
shared drive....when trying to save directly to drive, the following errors
occur: I will use an Excel file for this example:

documentname.xls cannot be found. Check your spelling, or try a different
path. Then when the user clicks the ok button, the following message apperars:

Excel cannot save file to this location. To save changes and avoid losing
data in your file, click the Microsoft Office Button, point to Save As and
click Excel Workbook, and then specify a location on your computer.

I have tried the following:

un-installing and re-installing office 2007
unregistering and re-registering excel
changing paramter to inlude "%1" under file types
removing excel document file type, etc

This problem only seemed to start happening once we upgraded our servers to
service pack 2.

Any help that can be provided, would be greatly appreciated. This also
happens with Word 2007 as well.

I have exactly the same issue. Multiple users accessing a ms office file
2003/2007 using Office 2007, fully patched. User can open the file and save
the file, but if they try to rename the file and save it back it gives:

"(file and location) cannot be found. Check your spelling or try a different
path."

User can save the file with that name to the desktop and then can copy it to
that location from the desktop without any issue or error. User can also pull
files to and overwrite files on the same location, so this is not an AD
rights issue.

Issue ONLY occurs within Office applicaitons when the user is trying to
rename the file and save to any location on the shared drive.

Office 2007 has also been uninstalled and reinstalled and is fully
updated/patched.

HELP!
