Default How do I save to a drive other than the C:Drive?

When attempting to save a document to my CD-RW drive (Erive) I get the
following message: You do not have access to the folder 'E:\'. See your
administrator for access to this folder.

I am working on my home computer that is not connected to a network. How do
I change my settings to get access to this folder? I do not get the same
message when saving to my floppy (A drive.

You don't! Nor should you save directly to floppy (or open or print) . These
are the major causes of document corruption - save to the Cd drive and
*COPY* to the removable media.

I think you meant to say "Save to your Hard Drive" then copy to cd.

Correct - I mis-typed C: drive.
