Folder Creation Error On Network Drive

Here's a really weird one! As if they all aren't.
Anybody got any help on this one. When I try to create a new folder on a
network drive from within Vista Business I get an error message that states
that the directory I am trying to create the new folder in does not exist, do
I want to create it. Of course it does exist. The only way I can create a new
folder is if I leave the default name "New Folder" alone. If I create the
folder this way and then try to rename it, same error message, the directory
I am currently in trying to create or rename a folder "does not exist".

This definitely is NOT a permissions issue as there has never been a problem
via XP or 2003. Something weird in Vista.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
 
After more testing I have discovered that if I create the directory from the
command prompt (still logged in as same user) I have no problem whatsoever in
creating the new folder.

HELP!
