Here is the story. A .xlsx Excel file from Office 2007. The file is under a
samba share. I'm trying to open it from a Windows 2003 terminal server session
with Office 2003 + compatibility pack.
What it works:
- copying that file to the local desktop and open it. Office 2003 converts it
to a readable format.
- Modify the document and change file name and copy it back to the share. So
modify and write permissions are set.
What it doesn't work:
- Try to open it directly from the samba share. However Word documents from
Office 2007 can be open from the samba share and converted on the fly.
I have read somewhere in a blog where a guy had issues with Excel in Samba
shares (only with Excel). Is it a known bug?
Regards,
Miguel
