Default Excel to Word question

Never work on a file that's on removeable media. Never save directly to
removeable media.

Tell the user to copy the file to their hard drive, make their changes, then
burn it back to the CD.

I copied an Excel table into Word and then copied it to a CD-RW for someone
else to update periodically. They can edit and make changes but are
unable
to Save the changes. Working with the CD, is there anything they can do
to
enable them to save? I no longer have the original Excel or Word tables
on
my computer.
