Unable to overwrite file to network drive

[Airmon]

In Excel 2003, we've got departments that use files on shared network
folders, mapped as drives.
When we open a file that's on the local computer, make an update to the
data, and then try to save the updated file to the network location
overwriting the existing file, there's a long delay after which there's an
error and Excel is unable to save. I get an error that the disk is full. it
isn't.
I also get a windows error that there's been a delayed write error and that
I should check the network.

I don't think it's a rights issue, since we're able to copy the files using
explorer without any problems and the same users were able to do this with
the previous computers running windows and office 2K.

I've tried to recreate the problem with MS Word 2003 and it's able to save
and overwrite files to the same location, on the same shared drive without
any problems, so I'm pretty sure this is confined to MS Excel.

Arimon;

Have you resolved this issue? It seems that it is not just an Excel problem.
We are having the same issue with Word 2003. This file has a lot graphics so
I have tried the F9 solution with no luck; I have also tried to convert it to
Publisher and I still get the same error.

Any help at this point would be great.

Thanks
