access to my CD drive to save files
I wish to save files to a rewritable CD in word. It reports 'icorrect
function' then access denied see sdministrator. This is a stand alon computer and there is no administrator. I can access CD drive from other routes e.g. explorer and 'my computer' |

Do not do this! It is a protected action in Word to prevent document
corruption. Save to the hard drive and copy to the disc. Copy back to the hard drive before opening the document. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Alan S wrote: I wish to save files to a rewritable CD in word.

Interesting - Microsoft Article: 184460 seems to indicate that you can save
to a writable CD drive! "Graham Mayor" wrote: Do not do this! It is a protected action in Word to prevent document corruption. Save to the hard drive and copy to the disc.

I don't care if Microsoft implies or says outright that you can save to a
recordable CD. Don't do it from within Word if you want to use your files. At a minimum, you'll eat up space on your CD, but loss of files is a regular occurance. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://www.mvps.org/word which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.
