Default Unable to save on network "Access denied. Contact your administrat

There is an Excel Spreedsheet that was created by someone else using Excel
2003. I was able to write and save to this file. I now have 2007 installed
and I no longer can save to this file "Access denied. Contact your
administrator." is displayed each and every time and temp files are starting
to show up in the location of the spreedsheet. If I copy the file over to my
local drive I can make changes and save the file, then I can copy the file
back to our virtual network drive. I have Read, Write, and now Modify
permissions. Is there a fix or do I have to reinstall 2003?

Forgot to add I'm using Windows XP Pro w/SP3
The virtual drive is a mapped drive (61G Free).
The file is 1.66M in size.

Problem Solved...

I needed Modify so the tmp files would go away. The tmp files are what gets
created every time you click on save. Modify allows the transition to work.
Hell...I had Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, and Write already
turned on. To keep the rest of the area secure I had out IT guy create a new
folder and allow me Modify permission. This keeps me and anyone else from
making any unwanted changes elswhere. All my bosses agreed on how I did this.
