    Hello. I was wondering if anyone else is having a similar
    problem. The problem is:

    I'm on a network (IBM) at work and 3 of us are working on
    the same file on a network drive thats been mapped (though
    I'm not sure what that means). The problem is
    intermittant, but happens quite often. One of us will try
    to save the document and then an error comes up saying
    that the file could not be found. At this point the only
    recourse is to try to save it to the local hardrive and
    then try to c/p the info together. Note that the original
    file disappears and there is a file with a bunch of
    numbers apparently left in it's place. When I try to get
    into that file and open it with Excell it says that the
    file is read-only or encrypted and it can not open it or
    if I try another application like WordPad it will say that
    access to that file is denied.

    Please, oh please help.

    Thank you for your time and attention,
    Randy
