Office 2K client is probably the problem.

Look at the Good, Better, Best paper which lists the differences with Office
2K / Office XP and Office 2003 when used with WSS.

That might help at least on some of these.

(You'll find the paper at the WSS FAQ site; Useful Documents / MS Articles
probably section after the Download section)
