We have a small office running SBS and like all the new things on which we
can get our hands, so we installed Vista on three machines and Office 2007 on
one. The Vista seems to play nicely with SBS as long as we manualy
established connections and th elike. However, we have an odd problem with
Office 2007.

Office 2007 installs fine, but will not save to any network drive. When the
Office
2007 user goes to save to his My Doocuments Folder (which is in the Users
directory on the SBS server), he gets a message saying "Document not saved."
Trying to "Save As" etc., does not work. The same problem occurs when he
goes to save to the shared business directory. It does not appear to be a
permissions issue and this problem does not occur with other programs. For
example, using Notepad allows us to save to the SBS server no problem.

We uninstalled Office 2007 and reinstalled Office 2003. The older Office
saved files on the SBS wihtout a hitch. We reinstalled Office 2007 and the
problem persists.

So, any suggestions as to why Office 2007 will not save to the SBS server.
Any cures to this madness?

Thanks for any help you can offer.

I would love a response on this because the exact same thing happened to us.
We are also a small office. We recently purchased two new machines with Vista
and Office 2007 and we are having the same issue with Office 2007. We get the
error message "document not saved" and we are unable to do it. Everything
worked fine under Office 2003. We also have a small business server. PLEASE
HELP.
