Corrupt Excel files when saving to Win2k3 server

[ssk3666]

Has anyone who has to work with Macs alot in their environment ever
seen strange occurances when saving Excel files, created on the Mac in
mac Office, to a Windows file server.

Strange occurances would be the file being corrupted when saved,
completely dissappearing or saving itself to something like ..
30382ksdakljs.xls ?

I was able to find some other people on macwindows.com who had
problems but the wierd thing is is that no one knows why or has been
able to fix it. Some say to disable anti-virus or use SMB versus AFP.
Just putting it out there to see if anyone has had this problem.
