Hi Niko -
Pat's the boss on this issue, but there were a couple of things which
weren't crystal to me and clarification may be useful to him:

Did the same file work correctly in *2008* before SP1? Or was it with 2004
that there was no problem?

Is it just the one workstation which has been updated to 12.1.0, or have
the
others been updated but are not exhibiting the same problem? If not
updated,
are those at 12.0.0, 12.0.1, or some other version of Office?

One other question: Has the problem workstation had permissions repaired
since it was updated with SP1? If not you might try doing so & see if it
makes a difference.
