I seem to have many many problems with our network since upgrading to Win
XP.

A couple of simple examples are:
1. When working on files the ability to save is lost. Eg. If I open a file
do some changes, close it, and try to reopen it later I either get a message
saying that it is locked by me!!! Or when it comes to saving I get errors
saying it can't be saved.

2. If I try to rename a file it lets me type in the new name but as soon as
I hit enter it reverts to the old name.

The list goes on. I have looked in many places for answers to these
questions and more but to no avail. Any one got any ideas. How about you
Bill, do you have the answers or just my money?
