Hi there,
Hoping someone can help me before I have to go to MS help desk! I have been getting in new IBM Thinkcentre computers with XP Pro pre-installed, and I have been installing my new volume licensing of Office 2003 Standard. I am getting some quirky things happening with the applications and want to get them resolved before I install it on any more computers.
First of all, Excel absolutely will not save to our "snap server" (external storage), it prompts users to copy or overwrite when saving a file. I have even created a new test document, closed it, and went right back in, and it does the same thing. It is fine with the documents on our Novell server. The second thing I've noticed is that on half of the computers I've installed so far, when your are in Word and go to "save as", our email application opens!! (GroupWise). I have looked through the settings and can't find anything set up differently. I have been using my personal laptop to hook up to the network for a year and haven't had any of these problems. It is running XP Pro and a retail version of Office 2003 Professional. Can anyone shed some light on this???
TIA
