Resolved. You were on the right track, Razmus, it was this issue related to office 2007 and users needing modify access to the folder. Never had this problem before upgrading from Office 2003 to 2007. I had to redo security on the entire folder structure... but it's fine now.

Have a Win2003 Server as a file server and multiple people connect to a mapped drive and save documents, mostly MS office (2007, 2003). &nbsp;All of a sudden, many people are complaining that thier files are gone. &nbsp;I notice that there are tons of XXXXXXXX.tmp files in all folders and the missing files are actually these files... if I rename one to XXXXXXX.xls, it's the missing file. &nbsp;This server is 5 years old and never had any trouble. &nbsp;There is nothing in the app or system logs... &nbsp;Any ideas?<br />
<br />
Thanks

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).
