Outlook 2007 - Save Attachments to Network

E

I have one laptop with Vista on it on our network. He also has
Outlook
2007. Everything works OK except he can't save file attachments in
Outlook
to a network drive. When he tries he gets a message saying the file
can not
be copied, but it leaves a 0KB file with the file name where he tried
to
save it. He can save the file to his desktop & then copy or move it
to the
network OK.
Any idea if I can fix this for him?

Thanks!

How is he saving the file when he gets the error? Also, is he working in
offline mode?

Does the user have Delete permissions on the network drive? I've found that
when Outlook saves a file to a network drive it creates a file and a temp
file, then deletes the temp file when it's done. Giving the user Delete
permissions made this behavior stop.

He is doing a Save As:. Yes he has full access to the network where
he is trying to save files to.

Thanks!
