One of our users has a problem with every file they save. They are running Windows 98 2nd Ed. with Office XP Professional. When they save or retrieve files, all the files have the web designation (%20) for spaces. So a file saved as "my file.doc" looks like "my%20file.doc". Any clues would be greatly appreciated.

20 is the Hex value for a space in AscII
I have no idea why shows as %20 in the file name, normally of course its just a blank or space.
If you do a Find and enter my file.doc, is the file found?
