I'm unable to save certain files on the network. The
message will prompt "save not completed.file rename
failed.retry ?"

I have tried to create a new file same folder and I have
no problem in saving the file.
 
Hi Anthony,
This is not actually an Excel problem, your solution will be
outside of Excel and involve security administration for the server...

Excel creates a temporary file, and when you save your
file, the old file is renamed, the new file is renamed and saved
and the old file is deleted (or something along those lines).

Antivirus programs and Network Administrators have a problem with
this for security reason, because the name
of the temporary file does not match the files that the user is
allowed to update, rename, or delete.

You need permissions--create, delete and rename?

Contact your Network or Data Security Administrator or specifically whoever
makes and enforces the rules for naming data files on the network.
