Yes it is a valid location and not password protected because if i just hit save and leave the default name it gives it it will save to any location, but as soon as i change the file name it wont save to any network location, and Win98 doesnt have much in the way of security, but i was reading other things on the internet and some guy suggested that i remove the Hotfix 885250 i beleive it was and that fixed the problem, so thanks for your help IP: Logged |

So whenever you change the name of the file, you cannot save? Are you sure, you are not trying to save in a location that does not exist? Have you tried to make a subfolder within my documents and then save your document within that subfolder within My documents? ------------------

I am having a Problem saving office documents. It is a Peer to Peer network, one PC is a Win98 File Server. it has a Mapped drive Called public and no passwords were entered when sharing this folder. I then Created a mapped drive called the P:\ drive and so when right click on the my documents folder i changed the path to the P:\ drive so it goes to the file server. So when i open say word 2000 and type a few letters then go to file and save, it comes up to the P:\ drive and if i leave the default save name it works, but when i change it to a more descriptive name or just change it to my initials or whatever i get a message saying "the folder P:\test.doc isn't accessible. The Folder may be located on an unavailable volume or protected with a password". either one of those isnt true. i dont need any passwords and when i goto open a document i can get into the folder no problem. so since the PC was kinda slow, i bought a new PC and installed WinXP corporate and Office 2000 and it still is doing it, i also disabled the office plugin in NAV and removed the shares and recreated them . i also created a new folder and shared it and still same thing happens. I can save to the local drive but not accross the network, there are no Service packs installed for office. I also tried to login as a new user and still wont work, 3 other PC's on the network work fine and use the same software and method. Please Help IP: Logged |
