Saving files shows as 0kb

[ovia]

Hi all,

This is a work related issue.

Could some of you knowledgable people help me out here?

One of my colleagues is having problems saving new documents onto the shared area. Everytime he tries to create a new document onto the shared drive it creates the image of the document being there, but does not save any of tha data. For example he can create a word document, when he tries to save/tansfer it onto the shared area it creates the image but does not save any of the text and so the size of the document shows as 0kb.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what is causing this? It is not permissions as I have checked them already.

Shared area is windows 2000 and desktop is windows XP.

Your help would be appreciated as this is a really annoying bug.

Thanks

I have had the user try various documents including word, excel and powerpoint. I have not tried none office based documents as yet.

The permissions are full modify permissions minus full control and take ownership permissions. They are based on permission groups and it is only affecting 1 user with that group, not the whole group, so I know its not the permissions unless for some reason they have not been resolved correctly.

I would post a screenie of it but work system wont allow me to access image hosting sites :S
