This is because the Office is trying to use drives/directories that exist on
the server but done exist on the workstation.
The only option I think you will have is to see if Office has an option to
install on a server and let the workstations work off that...
There is a command called SUBST (or is it ASSIGN) that will map the drives so
if your machines tries say D: drive then it automatically mapped to the same
drive on the server...
Hope this helps...
