New info to add: If I access the share as \\corpsrv\accounting, I can write to the files. If I access it via its drive letter I cannot. I've just mapped it via the command: net use m: \\corpsrv\accounting Also it is not just Excel. I've tried to open a text file with Notepad and I get the same results. Any ideas?
