Office 2004 save to dialog crashes on Intel machines only

C

Hello

I have a problem with a few machines running 10.4.8 on the Intel
platform only when saving a file or opening a file from a remote server
using any Microsoft Office application. If I try to navigate through
different folders on the server the applications Save/Open button will
flash continuously, the only option is to force quit the app.

This only happens when using Office applications connecting to a 10.4.8
Mac OS X server. This does not happen when using SMB as a protocol. It
also does not happen when logging on as the same user on a PPC
platform. I have managed to recreate this fault at two different
locations. I have tried downgrading the OS to 10.4.4 currently using
Office 11.3.3.

I have followed the suggestions at
http://word.mvps.org/Mac/CantSaveToServer.html and unfortunately the
problem still exists. Permissions/Disk repaired on server and client
machines also Caches emptied. Deleting preferences also does not fix
issue. Neither does repairing the database.

Has anyone got any ideas?

Many thanks

Chris Leat
