Hi All
I wasn't sure if this was the best place to ask this.
We have recently moved file servers and before hand we were not aware that there are a huge amount of excel documents used by our users which link to other excel documents.
Now when they try to open one of these documents Excel hangs with this message in the status bar: "contacting the server for information, press esc to cancel" No amount of pressing Esc brings this back to life.
The only way i can get one of these documents open is by disabling the network connection on the computer. As the folder structure on the new server is identical to that of the old server i was thinking i could fix this with a DNS Entry, but right now my main concern is trying to find out exactly what these excel documents is looking for?
How can i view what files this excel document is trying to access? Any other ideas about how i go about getting this resolved? As of right now the users basically can't do any of their work relating to excel documents they use! Would really appreciate any help on this!
Thanks in advance.
