Author 6.3 Crashing on Save

[CLydstone]

After upgrading to version 6.3 (from 6.0), I have been having an intermittent problem with MG Author. When I try to save a MWX after making some changes I frequently get an error message saying that access to the file was denied. After the message is displayed Author goes into a busy state and hangs, I then have to end Author manually. Has this happened to anyone else, is there something I can do to prevent this? Thanks.

Corey, Is the .MWX being edited on the same machine as the Author? If not, it may be that access to the location from which the Author opened the file has been lost. Attempting to save back to the 'non-existent' location causes the Author to hang. This also happens with .MWF files. -- Chris L.

The .MWX's are on a web server that I am accessing through a mapped drive. We have been running the same setup for a few years with previous versions (5 & 6) without any problems? The connection to the server is still active when the problems occur? Any suggestions are welcome, thanks for you help.
