I have two clients with SBS 2003 Standard R2. Both have shared folders for their users to store Excel and Word documents that the staff use. From time to time (once a month or so), they call to say files have disappeared. After searching, I discover the files have been moved. Sometimes it is a series of spreadsheets in a single folder that get moved, somtetimes it can be several folders themselves that move. The files are usually sequential, i.e., folders begining with the letter A through K.<br />
<br />
The clients swear that they aren't purposely moving the files, though I have my doubts that it isn't some type of user problem. Has anyone else seen this type of problem? I haven't been able to find any reference to such an issue anywhere.<br />
<br />
The users have 'change' level access to these folders and their children components. Only administrators have full access (and I'm the only admin).<br />
<br />
Any ideas?

files move without user intervention

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).

Microsoft Excel topics include formulas, formatting, VBA macros and user-defined functions, and everything else related to the spreadsheet user interface, including error messages.
