Problem with file access from fileserver

I have a fileserver running W2K server SP4.
Often when users access files on the server the following situation occurs:

The user opens a Word document, reads it and closes it. The user the decides
to delete it. But receives an error saying the file is in use by another
program or process.

When I the log on directly to the server and accesses "Computer
Management"-"Shared Folders"-"Open Files" I can see that the user in
question has the file open, even thought I have seen that the file was
closed. If I then terminate the connection from "Computer Management" and
the user now tires to delete the file, it works perfectly.

Does anyone know why this happens?

Sounds like the temp file that opens with a doc like that
is still open. Not much help but a place to start.
