FIDO, Microsoft- und Novell-Gruppen (das sind 3) in diesem Fall o.K., aber comp.os.netware.misc + comp.os.netware.connectivity sind z.B. sehr unfreundlich. Dann braucht man auch keine Untergruppen einzufuehren. Zum Problem: Ich haette keine direkte Loesung anzubieten, aber die Microsoft-programme (Word 6.0a auf alle Faelle) verstehen haeufig auch UNC-Namen (also //<server>/<volume>/<Pfad>/<Daten>). Waere sowieso die sauberere Loesung, um endlich einmal von den idiotischen Laufwerksbuchstaben wegzukommen. Ansonsten waere ein Upgrade auf Winword 6.0c wirklich dringend zu empfehlen. Beseitigt von Natur aus schon eine ganze Reihe von Fehlern. Appendix: International readers please excuse. This extensively crossposted article was published in a german group too. And in this group we answer in german. Rainer Haessner rh@linda.org.chemie.tu-muenchen.de
