I have a problem with Save As when saving to a network drive.

I am able to read the drive and also move files to and from the drive.
Also I can open an Excel document, make changes and save it with no problem.

When I create a new document and try to save it with a Save As I get the
following message:

H:/---/file isn't accessible
unavailable volume or invalid password.

TIA

Yes.

Same problem is cropping up in all versions on a network as far as I can tell.
