Not that I have done it, but saving to a CD AND THEN CLOSING the document is
probably OK.

It's trying to continue working with the document, or later trying to open
it and work with it from the CD, that is a NO, NO

I'm confused. On my desktop I can create a file in Word 2002 (Windows XP
Home) and click File Save As and choose my cd writer drive and it burns
the
file directly to the CD. I don't have to save it to my hard drive first
and
then copy it to the CD.

Your desktop is *on* your hard drive. When you save something to the
desktop you *are* saving it to your hard drive.
