Default Excel saves to wrong folder

I am using Excel 2002 (10.6816.6817) SP3

The same version as I was using. Very strange as it does not happen for me,
as I said. Sorry I do not have an answer.

| When you do the second Save As are you saying that Excel will not allow

| | In Excel XP, I open two files from a local folder. Then I save (using
| 'Save
| | As') the first file to a folder on a network share, when I try and
save
| the
| | second file to a different folder on the same network share, Excel
saves
| the
| | second file to the folder the frst file was saved to. I can diplicate
this
| on
| | multiple machines on multiple domains. I have applied all updates. Is
| there a
| | way to stop this from happening? The only work around I have come up
with
| is
| | to close Excel between each 'Save As' attempt.
