Default Unable to save changes to recipient list on networked drive


If I use Mail Merge wizard in Word 07, edit my source document (compat.
mode on a network drive) and then close out I get the following message
"5FAF7666.doc is a maiin document that is attached to a data source FTG
data.dco that has not been saved. Do you want to save FTG data.doc." I
choose Yes, and then get a message that I cannot because FTG data.doc is read
-only. I can edit the same document directly on the network drive, and I
have verified that it is neither protected or read-only. If I do the same
thing on copied versions of the same files on my C drive, I have no problems.
One other bit of information - I have zero problems when doing the same steps
in Word 2003 in EITHER location.



2 questions:

1. Why is the main document showing up as "5faf7666.doc" instead of "FTG
Receipt ltr.doc" in the message?

2. Why do I not have the same issues on my C drive?
