Saving a worksheet

[Nancy Palazzolo]

My problem is that when I save a worksheet, the file name
I've typed in is automatically converted to a single
letter. For example, 'worklog.xls' is converted
to 'w.xls'. I don't know why this is happening or what
to do to prevent it from happening. I've got Excel '97,
and I've made sure I am saving it as an 'Excel '97'
document. Pleeeze help!

Check to see if Excel is running in Windows 95 compatibility mode.

There was a post that said:
When I disabled compatibility mode the file name problem went away.

And maybe this will help:
