Word cannot complete the save due to a file permission error

Hallo, when I try to save a document I get the file permission error.

I am working on a Win XP Pro (NTFS) machine with Word 6.0a and I am saving
my documents on a Win 2000 Server. The error appers occasionally, not always
what makes it even more difficult to find out. When I use Word 2000,
everything is normal. However I have to use Word 6.0a :-( because of my boss.

When I start a new document and save it and then later when I want to do
some changes and I want to save it, I get this stupid file permission errror.

So I get the error, I click on the ok button and then the save window appers.
I just need to click on an another filename and then again on the original
file name and then I am able to save my document normal.

The same procedure is needed when I open an already existed file and do some
changes.

First I thought it has maybe something with the article:
"WD95: Word Cannot "Save As" Due To A File Permission Error" (Q178360)

On one machine where Win XP (FAT32) was installed the error didn't appear.
But since a couple of days I have the same error on the FAT32 machine.

Is there something what could be done to fix this error (expect using Word
2000) ?
