Error message saving all excel files to network share

Hello,

Every time we open a file from our network share and then try to save it we
get the messsage "The file filename.xls may have been changed by another user
since you last saved it. In that case, what do you". We are then asked to
"Save a copy" or "Overwrite changes". This message occurs even if no changes
have been made to the document.

Any ideas what is going on here?

Thanks,

Glynn

Have a look at this KB Article

"The file may have been changed..." error when you save work­book to network
server in Excel 2002

Myrna Larson also reported that she got this error when open­ing a workspace
(*.xlw) file.

Opening the workbooks individually solved the problem.
