Default cannot save modified file with the same filename

I recently bought a new system with Win7 Home Premium and Word 2007. I copied
all of my address files (.doc) over to the new system. I notice that when I
open one of these .doc files and change it I cannot save it back to the same
filename. The Save As dialog box repeatedly pops up until I either cancel the
save or save the document with a different name. I can always save the
document with a different name and then delete the original file and rename
the newly saved file. Once the file is changed I have no problem changing
that file again and saving it. This only happens on the first attempt at
modification. I have about 100 address files and can reproduce this every
time. I open the file by navigating to the folder that contains the address
files and double-clicking the file to bring up Word 2007. The same thing
happens if I start Word first and use File-Open to open the address file.
