Document not saved

[bill]

Hi,

hers the setup...

Server: sbs 2003.
Clients Windows Vista Business
Office 2007.

Problem....

when saving files from office 2007 in a file format (.doc .xls) other than
the default .docx .xlsx i get "document not saved".

Saving the document with the default .docx .xlsx saves fine.

On windows xp clients office 2007 saves the files no matter what extension
is used.

Any ideas what could be causing the problem? or is it just a Vista bug and I
need to down grade to XP?

Does windows 7 inherit these issues?

Is it not a problem with Word, rather than Vista?

Consider asking in an Office newsgroup, where the focus is on such issues.

actually it does appear to be a problem with vista considering i have no
issues with office 2007 on windows xp.

Have you tried the Microsoft Office Diagnostics tool ?
