"Disk is full" - but it's not
I'm having trouble with a laptop user with Office 2003 who is trying to
access and save an Excel file on the network. They can open and modify fine, but trying to save it very often they will get a dialog box pop up that says "The disk is full.", and then a second one that says "Document not saved." Occassionally it will save successfully, but sometimes doing a "Save As" and overwriting the file will work better. The files are located on a Windows 2003 R2 file server, and I've checked the NTFS and Share permissions, and that does not seem to be a problem - the user can create new documents in the folder. I do not have quotas turned on. I've tried running Detect and Repair, and clearing out all of the local Temp files, but I still have the same problem. I've also tried logging in to the laptop as the domain administrator, and I still get the same problem. Can anyone help out on this? |

Read Write and Modify all enabled for the user?

"Disk is full" - but it's not
Last time I had this happen on an external drive, the drive crashed and I
lost all the data. I'd be checking that drive on that server.... -- Echo [MS PPT MVP] http://www.echosvoice.com What's new in PPT 2007? http://www.echosvoice.com/2007.htm Fixing PowerPoint Annoyances http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/powerpointannoy/ "Steele" wrote in message ...

Yes, and sometimes it will actually work.

There isn't a anti-virus software sniffing the files in question perhaps?

"Disk is full" - but it's not
We are having this problem at the moment with several customers. It suddenly
happens that the system says "disc full" - but it is´t - and i saw this on windows server 2003, sbs and windows xp. Does anyone have an idea where this is coming from ?
