Ever since I upgraded our company to Office 2003, I've noticed that the shares where multiple users read the sheets at the same time have started to leave tons of temp files.
For example:
tempfiles.JPG


This is just a snapshot, and that directory has about 185 temp files in there and it's growing.
Has anyonne seen this before. We didn't start having this problem until Office 2003.

Any guesses? I really don't want to have to manually erase them every week.
Thanks.
 
no idea, but as far as manually deleting goes, you could easily do a script or batch file that you could run once a week to get rid of them...interesting problem though, I only run 2003 on my personal desktop so I have no idea...
 
Thx Czar. I know I could do a batch, but I'm "that guy" that doesn't want to have to do things like that if there's a simple fix (not "workaround"). They are in fact temp/duplicates of those 2 files listed (open with Excel)

hmmm......
