We have recently changed servers and upgraded from Word 97 to Word 2003.
Whenever I try to open a saved document using the Look In dialog box the
system takes 3 - 5 minutes before bringing up the documents. I saw a
question about templates being on an old server, but we are just using
normal.dot for everything.

Thanks for any guidance on the problem.

Windows XP: Right-click on the My Computer icon on the Windows desktop
or in the Windows Start menu, left-click on Disconnect Network Drive,
and disconnect any mapped drives that are not currently available.

Windows Vista: Click on Start | Computer | Tools | Disconnect Network
Drive, and disconnected any mapped drives that are not currently available.
