I'm looking for an answer, but I was wondering if this message was
ever solved?

I have one user with Windows XP and Office 97. He'll be working away
on some Excel sheet which is usually big (not huge) and with macros.
He'll go to save, and gets the message "Document not saved" Nothing
else, just that message.

If he tries doing a Save As to either a different name or location
(network or local), it does the same thing; it's just faster with the
message on the local drive. He has to copy sheet by sheet to another
workbook and save that one.

Like I say, I've looked around, but no answer.

Thanks for any help.

I used to have that problem a lot when I worked for a smaller company that
had numerous service interruptions on it's network every day. Excel loses
it's way home when that happens if you have a file open from the network.
I got to where I had to save almost after every entry.......an alternative is
to bring the file down to your local C drive and use it there and then put it
back when you're finished, but that's a bit of a pain.
