Problems saving excel file from outlook

L

Laron Cheek

I have an EU that whenever he saves an excel file from
outlook, it will rename the file (by adding the number "2"
at the end of the file "file2.xls") and it also changes
all the embedding links in the document. (The embedding
link of F:\users\file.xls changes to c:\documents and
settings\file.xls)

Are you setting a Hyperlink base for your links? See Menu
File > Property > Summary tab. Put the original folder
Click to expand...
location there and when you move or save the file the
links will not be renamed. Also assigning a letter to the
drive can cause problems (not everyone will have the same
letter for that drive). You need to use the real path
name, if possible. Can not help with the Outlook save
problem. It does increment as you say?
