My company recently(finally) upgraded to Windows 7 Professional and Office 2010. When accessing shared workbooks that worked perfectly with XP and Office 2007 we now get this error message nearly evertime we access a shared workbook. "You are no longer connected to this file. Another user may have removed you from it, or saved over it." I wonder what has changed to make this frustrating error message appear almost every time we try to save our data to it.
Thanks for any help and Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanks isabelle for the reply. These shared workbooks have been set correctly for months and we had no problems with them until some of us were upgraded to Windows 7. Those who have yet to be upgraded and are still on Windows XP do not have the issue that I state in my origianl post.

Hi Isabelle- Yes it is saved as a 97 - 2003 workbook. I will ask creator to save as a docx and give that a try?
