Anyone having issues with Word 2003 opening files as read-only on
Vista?
I'm running Vista Enterprise and Office 2003 with the latest hotfixes.
Periodically, when I open files from a network drive, they open as
read-only. If I close and re-open the same file, the read-only status
goes away.
Doesn't happen on Windows XP, Office 2003 and the same network drives.
Independently happening on two Vista boxes in IS (our test bed). I
called into Microsoft PSS and opened a case. After 2 hours, we decided
to disable Offline Files and that seemed to help a lot, but I'm still
getting the read-only status on DOC files from time to time.
Doesn't seem to happen with Office 2007, but we are not ready for that
version of Office corporate wide. I'm also not ready to deploy Vista
to the masses with this issue.
So, am I the only one?
Thanks,
Adam
