Default Office 2007 compatibility pack on Office 2003 (slow network file


Hi Guys,

Happy new year!

I am running into an issue where some of the users in the organization are
experiencing a problem where if they open/save an Office 2007 file in Office
2003 (with compatibility pack installed) over the network, the process is
extremely slow, and sometimes Excel (mainly) crashes.

Sometimes they get an error along the lines of "Excel is waiting for another
program to finish an OLE operation."

This does not happen when opening/saving same files with Office 2007.

Please advise.

Thank you kindly,
Paul
