Hello everybody.

I have the following problem at Office 2003

1. I open a new Word document.
2. I import an Excel worksheet.
3. When I try to edit Excel worksheet I receive this message:
"Word cannot open document: user does not have access privileges"

4.I copy the Word file to another PC on the network.
5.I use Remote Desktop, I logon to the network PC and I open
the Word document with PC's Office 2003.
6.I try to edit the Excel worksheet in the Word document
and everything works fine.

I cannot edit the Excel worksheet at my PC, although It was me that I created in my PC.

Infos:
-Administrator rights at both PCs.
-All antivirus programs (McAfee, Windows defender),
are disabled from Windows services and startup,to be sure
that they are not responsible for that problem.
-My PC uses WinXP Pro, the Word file is saved in FAT32 partition.
-Network PC uses WinXP home, FAT32 system.

Can someone please point me a direction to search about that problem,
because I can't think of something...

Thank you in advanced.

Dear OnedTenT,

Thank you for your answer.

I have seen the 308421 article, before posting this thread.
It is mentioned at many threads in this forum.

The menus that this article explains are not existing at Windows XP that are installed at my Office.
Also, I have not found a thread in this forum having he above problem solved except from a guy that had problem with it's anti-virus program.

Thank you anyway.

OK, no stars for OnedTent this time.
