Hello,

I am trying to save my edited(daily)40-50 pg documents
(word) from my desktop to my zip disc, floppy disc, or my
documents for back up purposes. This a recent problem.

"Word cannot complete the save due to a file permission
error."

When I try to click on 'Ok' it doesn't click through, and
all operations freeze. I then have to shut down and re-
boot to begin again but I have lost my new
additions/corrections to the word documentfor the day!

Interestingly and maybe related; for three years when I
try to open any word document on my desk top a timy little
mssg appears;

Cannot open word document"...I then clik on 'ok' and the
document opens immediatly. No problem. Maybe this is
related in some way to my storage problem above.

Can you help?
 
You should never - repeat NEVER - save (or open) documents to removable
media. It is the most certain cause of document corruption. Always save to
the hard drive and COPY to the removable media.
