Hope I have not duplicated an issue already posted but I could not find anything from the search...
Right here is the problem, we have recently updated all our desktops to the MS Office 2007 suite and people have issues trying to open simple files like word documents...
the systems are
Windows XP (SP3)
Novell Network with novell client
Office 2007
when they try to open a word document from a usual network share word presents a message reporting
Access Denied Contact Administrator
So we assumed network permissions, none of which have changed...so try the same file with Wordpad and it opens fine, be it with formating issues of course...
Now copy the file to your desktop, which is not redirected, and you can open the file in word as normal...
so does anyone know if office 2007 uses some new permission when opening files? does it create temps or something...
any pointers would be appreciated
