Problems saving files from XP to Win98 "server"

At work we use a win98 "server" where we store office documents in shared folder. All users work with WIN XP.

We have the following problem:

If a user opens a file from the server opent, changes it and wants to save it under another name, they can't ?! The following errormessage appears:

The folder '\\Server\c\Bv\Documentation\CustomerData\CustomerXYZ'isn't accessible. The folder may be located in an unavailable location, protected with a password, or the filename contains a / or \.

If they save the file to their PC first and then copy and paste it to the server they don't have this problem

Does anyone know / have this problem and, more important, know a solution for it ??
 
Im not sure how helpful this is, but Windows XP and Windows 98 dont work together very well. If you could suggest it, try telling them to get XP or Win2000 Pro on the server machine.
