I am using Excel 2007. When I open a 97-2003 file and do save-as, I get a
message that the file is in use by another user. This does not occur
everytime, but often. I have to save it as a new name. It is on a shared
server, most other users do not have 2007 yet. Changing the name is not the
best option, because of sharing and the links.

Well, I don't think it's very strange that you get a message like "file is in
use by another user", given you're talking about sharing and shared server.

No, the file is definitely not being used. I am the only one using the file
during this time. I am now up to version 6 and cannot delete the other files.
