Excel changes file name to numeric name when saving --HELP
 

When DFS is turned on, the name changes to a numeric name that includes date
and timestamp. Enviorment Win2K SP4, replicating to a Win2k3 server.

When Excel saves a file, it first saves it under a temporary name. If there
are no errors during the save, it deletes the original file and renames the
new version. Sounds like your network settings/permissions are not allowing
Excel to delete the original file.
