WORD - Save on USB memory key - problems
When I open a document in WORD 2003 directly from USB memory key and than I
make some changes in it. When I try to save it, opens an error message: "Word cannot finish saving, because you don't have permission" (or something like that). Then it can hapen, that WORD erases this document from the key! I tried to find if I have any virus, but I don't. This problem started one day, but before I didn' have any problems with that. This problem occurs only in WORD, in other MS Office (eg. Excel) is no problem. I have tried different USB memory keys, and always is the same. What could be the reason? |

WORD - Save on USB memory key - problems
NEVER, NEVER, NEVER save a file directly to removeable media.

Copy the file to your hard disk and work with it from there. -- Bob http://www.kanyak.com |

WORD - Save on USB memory key - problems
NEVER read directly from, or save to, any removable media. Copy the
file to your hard drive first, and copy it back when you're finished.
