Default Document Building Blocks

Hi,

If we try and add new text to the Building Blocks.dotx file, we're getting
an error message saying the the building blocks.dotx file is read only.

We're adding the text in the following way:

1, Highlight the text to be added.
2, From the Quick Parts menu select Save Selection to Quick Part Gallery
3, We name the building block and set the Save in option to Building
Blocks.dotx and click the OK button.

The dialogue box disappears and the changes appear to have been saved, but
when exiting word we get the message:


You have modified styles, building blocks, or other content that is stored
in "Building Blocks.dotx". Do you want to save changes to "Building
Blocks.dotx"?

With buttons "Yes", "No" and "Cancel"

If we select "Yes" we get the following error message:


The file is read only.
(Building Blocks.dotx)


We are using redirected folders on our network for My Documents and
Application Data. The users have full control of their redirected folders.

If we repeat the same steps as above without using redirected folders we are
able to save changes successfully to Building Blocks.dotx.

Any help here would be very much appreciated!
