Excel 97 save problem

Users are running Excel 97 SR2b on Win98 machines. Files are stored on a win2003 server.
A user can be working on an Excel file and save it successfully several times but then the next save causes Excel97 to hang and the task has to be ended. Also the temp file which excel uses has grown to a very large size (several 100 Mbs and even 2 GB). Re-opening the file and saving has the same result. If the file is opened on another PC it saves OK initially but eventually the problem occurs there as well.
I haven't been able to duplicate it on a Win2000 machine.
Has anyone any ideas please?

Dave
