Problem saving docs

A

Alan C

I have a new XPpro (sp2) pc with MSO2k3 linked peer-to-peer with my
secretary's Win98se box. 3 folders on the old pc are mapped, and can be
browsed, etc with no problems. However, if I create a new document and
'save as' to one of the map drives it will only save if I use the default
filename (i.e. the first x characters in the doc.). If I change the
filename and click 'save' I get an error 'network path not found'. Same
thing happens if I open a document from a map drive and try to save with a
different name.

Help, please!!!

If you installed Windows update KB885250 "MS05-011: Vulnerability in
server message block could allow remote code execution" on the new
computer, try uninstalling KB885250 in Start | Control Panel |
Add/Remove Programs. See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=895900 "You
cannot save a file from your Windows XP-based or Windows 2000-based
computer to a shared folder on a file server" for more information.
