I'm getting a "folder is read only" error when trying to
use "save as" to save a file. I can use save as from
another computer, logged in to the network the same
without the error. The machine getting the error can copy
and paste files to the folders without error, just happens
when using the "save as" from the file menu.

Is there someplace to change folder attributes that only
office 2003 is using?
 
OK, I've figured this one out myself. When using a Novell
server and Office 2003, it would seem that it is necessary
to use Novel Client 4.83 sp2 or above instead of the
Microsoft Client for Novel. It appears that the MS Client
is "dropping the ball" when checking rights to some sub
folders. I can't seem to narrow it down any farther than
that. I simply installed the Novel client and it has
fixed the problem.
