Pavel,

Thanks,

Yes /mnt/win98 is mounted as 0777 and word still can't write.

The error messages are in 8.3 format, it may be a word config thing.

    Thanks again for the reply. This must be an office, MS Word and Excel 
issue.

ls -al   /mnt     shows the directroy as 0777 so it should be wide open 
from the linux side

The following is the config definition:

[Drive C]
"Path" = "/mnt/win98"
"Type" = "hd"
"Label" = "win98"
"Filesystem" = "win95"

Is there any other wine definition that could be blocking a write??

Thanks,
Dan

    Hi!
  Yes, /mnt has mode 0777. And what about /mnt/win98 ?
  You wrote formerly that wine runs as root so it's not an issue in this case
probably; only to be sure.
