That was a collaborative effort... and it was for Office X.......
Office 2004 got rid of the CRD and everything is now in .plist that
shoudl support relative addressing for entworked or re-located home
directories. My home directory is relocated (but nor networked) and it
works like a charm.
Additionally, the CRD equally affected Word, Excel and PPT (but not
Entourage).
It looks to me like there is something else here... I hope it's not
related to some of the known networking issues wuth the System.
10.3.7 has been rumored on many sites, I wonder whether it will bring
any improvements on this area.

Is there any plug-in installed for Office on these machines ???
