files there but can't see

On our Windows 2000 server, set up with terminal services and a domain
controller, we have shortcuts to Word and Excel documents that will open in
read-only mode. When I go to the location of the file, or search for it,
nothing appears. I checked the properties of the folder and nothing shows
hidden.

How do I find these files?

Perhaps you don't have the permissions on the folder in which these files
reside to view the contents of the folder, i.e. list contents?

Hi,

Word and Excel open documents in "read only" if they are already
open by someone else? Is the shortcut to the program or to a document?
Have you tried deleting the normal.dot?

Cheers,

Lara
