I have a user with a new computer running XP o/s and Office 2000 SP3.
Her default file location for Excel is on the network Novell)to her personal home directory for which she has FULL rights.
After modifying a workbook and then saving, an additional file is getting created with how the workbook looked before the modification.
The additional file getting saved uses the same name but then adds ~*****.tmp (not actually **** but what appears to be random alph/numeric characters…example rf1c7a38).
This never used to be the case on her prior system (95 with Office 2000 SR1). She has full rights on her home directory on the network. This is NOT an issue with our other network systems.
Why is this happening and how can I turn it off?
When she initiates a file open, these files are visible even though they have a .tmp extension and file of type is Excel workbook.
