It might be that I was doing something wrong in the "save as" dialog of office
2010. I haven't worked in windows7 for a long while and wasn't very clear on
what to do - I'll try again with a fresh mind tommorrow.

Subject: Re: shared folders in VMWare
Hi Phil,
The shared folders should let you create and minipulate files and folders in
the shared folder. I also do this in my dropbox and my documents folder as
well as my desktop and all works well in VM fusion with windows 7. I'm using
VM Fusion 5.

I have the "documents" folder, and my "dropbox" folder set as shared

folder, but I tried to write a word document (.doc) to the documents folder,
and no joy - it didn't show up there.
Question: Is it the case that the VM can only read/write existing files in
shared folders, and not actually create new files there?
I'm trying to figure out why the test file I created in Microsoft Word
didn't save into the mac's documents folder. I can access and browse the
folder, but I couldn't create anything into it.
