is this office xp? I have had this problem with office xp - exactly the same as you mate. You would double click file (word or excel type) that resided on the server, the host app would open up (Word or Excel respectively) and that was it. After a while though, a message box would come up and ask for the Office XP CD, because some crap feature was not installed. Of course that would happen even with an empty word doc or excel sheet wink . You'd insert the Office cd, it would update whatever and that was the end of it.

I have seen that as well. Can you open Excell first and then use the open dialog to browse to the file and then open it? That has worked for me.

No, to answer to your question, if i opened Excel and that i tried to open a files from the server, we had the same problem.

It was a problem of CID permission.

When you copy files from a old Server to a new one, you change permissions to access files, but you have to change proprietary of files (same name (for exemple : administrator) is not same id for Windows 2K)

After having made this change (and reboot server) it worked !!!!

i hope i will help somebody having and discussing about this problem

bye bye
