Hi i read your problem and i suggest you to verify user , owner and group chmod on directory with docs and on user that modified this word file. When you create new file word saves ~.tmp on your local harddisk temp directory and saves it to share with save command and new name. Afther when you edit then ~... file is created on share but samba can vetoing ~ char in name by settings veto or bad codepage. Check your vetofiles settings on samba. Bye.
