This is a very strange one.
10 pc network (Windows 2000 Server - All clients Windows 98/2000 ) with
Access,
Accounts & Time Management databases.
The customer also uses Word, Excel,Powerpoint etc.
Everything updates fine on the Server except the Excel files.
If a user adds data to an existing Excel file on the "H Drive" & goes back
to
that same file the next day on the "H Drive" the information is not there??
They have lost the work.
In the meantime the users are having to save to their local
C drives.
They have thousands of Excel files so it would be difficult to recreate all
the documents.
Again I emphasise that Word documents, databases etc save the changes fine.
No work is lost
I have checked the server for viruses & spyware but found nothing.
The Event log shows up nothing.
I am considering setting up the Server from scratch with a new Hard Disk but
am afraid
I may carry over the problem.
Any ideas??
Pleaseeeeeeee
-- Regards, Joe
