Office 2007 Network (Mapped Drive) Save Issue

[CoCUser]

A recent issue with all Office 2007 applications has been giving me a bit of
grief. When an user tries to save a document to his or her network folder
they receive the following message:

u:\username\document.name' cannot be found. Check your spelling or try a
different path.

All users have correct file permissions (full control) to their network
folders. All other applications (WordPad, notepad, Office 2003) can create,
edit, and delete files and folders in the users folders which leads me to
believe this is Office 2007 issue. The user can save locally and then move
or copy the file to their folder.

The issue is present on XP SP2 with Office 2007 Enterprise and Vista
Business with Office 2007 Enterprise.

I've tried disabling indexing of the users folder, disabling UAC, and
disable offline files. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

We have the same problem. We worked with Gateway, where we buy our PCs and
they said they have no fix. We have to wait for service pack 1. The only way
you can save files is to save to the C: drive and then 'Move' the file to the
proper place on the network mapped drive. This is not at all acceptable to
us. Our users are not sophisticated enough to do this. That's why we set up
mapped drives in the first place! If Microsoft has a fix, I think they should
make it available now, not wait for the service pack. This is a serious
problem. We have stopped installing Vista or Office 2007 anywhere in our
business because of it.
