Problems accessing office files
I operate a small office network with a desktop and laptop both running Vista Business. The network includes a DNS-323 NAS drive connected via a Netgear DGFV338 router. The NAs is configured in RAID1 format with two identical Seagate hard drives. The network was set up in September 2007 and ran fine until mid December 2009 when I began to have problems accessing files on the NAS drive. When trying to open a Word, Excel or saved email file I get the "File In Use" message saying the files is locked for editing by "another user" even though it is not open elsewhere. Saving a newly created file to the NAS drive is fine but if I then edit it and try to save the changes I get a similar message just saying that the file is currenlty in use. Try again later. It is slightly different when I try to open an email that I have saved in Outlook Message Format – Unicode which is: "cannot open file - may not exist - may not have permission - or may be open in another program" The propoerties show I do have permission and it is not open elsewhere. The same problems also arise when trying to access a shared folder on the desktop pc on the network. I don’t have problems opening jpg or pdf files it only seems to be Office file formats that are affected.

Access 97 executables and other versions of Access
I have a few questions regarding Access 97 and other versions of Access as we don't have time to develop .net versions of our Access 97 databases and some of our users are moving to other versions of Office/Access - I work for a local authority hence we tend to be very slow in moving to newer technology! We've tried converting our Access 97 databases (lots of front end forms) into Access 2000 but they fail and we don't want to install two versions of Access due to having our applications delivered via Novell to the user (PC's are locked down).
