Default how can I stop UNC paths searches from within Word / Office ?

I have a Win 2003 network with XP Pro Clients. I do not want users being able
to have access to anything but the drive letters I specify. But from within
word they have the ability to open UNC paths and I want to disable this.

Help please

Hi Adelphi

As I understand it, permission to access a drive or folder is an operating
system and network issue. Word will respect the permissions granted to the
user by the operating system or network setup.

In short, this isn't a Word issue: it's an OS issue.

Hope this helps.
