Vista - The "Documents" folder does not exist.

The "Documents" folder does not exist.

All my Windows Vista Business and Vista ultimate laptops cannot save files
using Office 2007 to the redirected folder on the Network. I am running
native Windows 2003 Active Directory. All my XP laptops work fine.

Additionally, I can create and edit txt and rtf files in wordpad. I can
navigate to the Docments directory and open Word or Excel files, but I cannot
save to the redirected folder. I can save to the desktop and then copy them
to the redirected folder.

Anyone run into this? I think something is wrong with the permissions on
the redirected folder, but I haven't figured it out. All my users have Full
Control permissions, but something is stopping Office 2007 from saving.

Re: The "Documents" folder does not exist.

Well I tried that and it crashed the workstation. So, I am back to square one.

I have Vista Ultimate w/SP1 connecting to a native Windows 2003 AD.
Folder Redirection is set in AD, but synchronization does not occur and
cannot save files using Office 2007 to the redirected folder on the Network.

Any suggestions?

Additional info: When I disable offline folders, I can save to the
redirected folder, but still cannot sync.

Re: The "Documents" folder does not exist.

After doing some more reading on this site, I am going to put this question
up on the Group Policy site.
