Every time I try to save a document (ex. word perfect) on to a disk I get
"you have no access to drive e. see your administrator"
I have always used floppy disks in the past. This stuff just doesn't make
sense to me.
Please help!
 
You can not save directly to a CD or DVD from another program unless you
have packet writing software installed on your computer and have formatted
the CD DVD using the packet writing software.

You need Either Roxio Easy Media Creator or Nero. Both of these include a
packet writing module. Roxio has "Drag to Disk" and Nero supplies "InCD".
Both work fine.

You need 3rd party software that does packet writing to write directly
to a CD as if it were a big floppy disk. Nero's InCD or Roxio's current
offering of Drag to Disc.

Are you differentiating between the app writing to CD
and dragging-'n-dropping a file to CD? Windows XP
can do the latter.
