Default Suddenly a document modified in Word cannot 'save as' to a networ.

My computer and that of one of my assistants has suddenly created an error
when we try to "save as" a document that we modify. It will save to our own
Hard Drive, and if we create a new document, that will save to the network,
it just will not 'save as' something different from the network to the
network. Curiously, if we simply 'save' the document, that DOES work, (but
then we lose the archiving of the original document).

The actual error message is: "The folder
'E:\........\..........\filename.doc' isn't accessible. The folder may be
located in an unavailable location, protected with a password, or the
filename contains a / or \"

The folder is available (it's where we got the original file from), the
files are NOT protected by password, and apart from the root directory
structure, there are no '/ or \' in the filename (which is usually simply
adding a numeric value to the previous filename.

As stated in the subject line, we've had no problems over the past 15 years,
but just this week, 2 computers only (out of about 9 or 10) have exhibited
this exact problem.

My computer has Windows 2000 Pro and my assistant has Win XP Pro. We both
run Office 2002 (XP??).

Help please!!
