Issue:
- If I open Word and create and save a file to my desktop, I can upload it to SharePoint with no issue.
- If I right click and create a Word document on my desktop machine I am unable to upload it to SharePoint. I get the following error message (in both IE10 and Firefox):
You must specify a value for the required field. The file name is invalid or the file is empty. A file name cannot contain any of the following characters: \ / : * ? " < > | # { } % ~ &
- If I select new word document in SharePoint it also won't let me save the document. No error message is given.
A colleague has no issue so I'm aware it is local to my machine.
I have a WSS 3.0 installation on Server 2003. I have a Windows 7 desktop machine with Office 2010.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
