The save as dialog doesn't show up

[[mEo!]]

I am having the same problem as the user here:
http://www.experts-exchange.com/Applications/MS_Office/Word/Q_21434156.html


Quote:

When I try to save a document in Word, nothing happens. Save as, or regular
save. Neither one actually does anything. No dialog box, no drive activiy,
no file saving.
All other Office apps work normally.
I've scanned for viruses (on a network lan with autoupdating signature files)
I've blown away the normal.dot
I've replaced the normal.dot with a working installation
I've wiped out and reinstalled Office
I've even done a repair install of IE just in case it may be tied to the
central dialog calls..
No macros at all.


Can someone please tell me how to fix this?

I'm also having this problem. Here are the details:

Only occurs in ms Word 2000, all other office applications work fine.

The save and save as functions do nothing. No dialogs, no error messages,
just nothing.

This occurs on a system running windows 2000 server for locally logged in
users.

However, if the user is added to the administrators group, the problem goes
away. However, I refuse to give everyone admin access just to fix this
problem.

Therefore, the problem appears to be related to security settings. Which
settings could cause this? Thanks.
