I can accept that that may be the case (I did check on the commandline and
what you say is true), however my AD Group Policy excludes "My Documents"
from the roaming profile, and it works with W2K and Office 2K, however the
XP Pro PC's (with Office 2003) do NOT respect this group policy (other GPO
are respected) and let the "My Documents" which appears visually as username
Documents to copy to the network copy of the roaming profile! The network
copy is called My Documents at commandline, again disconcerting as how can
we trust what we see now!
I can also say that according to my test it deesn't appear to be a Windows
feature, the folder only changed name when I started Word 2003 for the first
time.
Where is there info on this 'visual feature' that is supposedly causing this
problem as I'd like to turn it off!!!
