        <description><![CDATA[Thanks for your reply. I know i should start a new question but i wanted to talk with someone who had seen the same issue and this post was quite near. (sorry for my english) I posted on a 7year old question and i got a reply in less than 24 hours, thats not bad! Nobody else has the file open because the file does not exist yet (open excel, new ... , save as)]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[A couple of things here.First it's probably not a great idea to tag at the end of a 7 year old question and expect much in the way of answers. Start a new question and you'll get a better response. Secondly if there is someone else with the same file open when you try to save it then Excel will not be able to save the file no matter what else is happening. It's one of the things about Excel you can not have more than one person at a time working on the same file and have it savable. Col]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[I am having the same problem in Excel 2007.  The user is opening up a spreadsheet he uses as a template more or less, doing save as, giving it a different name and it will not allow him to save it.  I verified the share is set to Everyone full control and the NTFS persmissions give him and domain admins full control.  Just for giggles I propagated his permissions on the folder and subfolders, and that didn't fix it. He can write, read, rename and everything but cannot save from the Save As box in Excel.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[I wasn't involved in the original discussions, so maybe I don't fully understand the problem.  But, based on what I've read so far, it appears to be a user problem.  If the user is opening the file from a network location, then trying to do a SAVE AS back to the same file name, it won't let them because the file name exists already and is in use because it's open.  They should be simply clicking SAVE and not SAVE AS.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[I too am having this same issue.  With both word and excel only, all other apps can write fine.  With word, disabling the automatically create a backup copy (tools, options, save, and then uncheck) solved the issue with word.  However, I have yet to find a solution with Excel.  As this thread was opened some time ago, I am hoping that there is a solution by now!  thanks.-a]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[It seems that our order forms which we have been using (same VBA code) for over a year stopped working since MS January patches. Has nothing to do with Network shares. Our current workaround is to save the file with a different name first in Windows Explorer, work away on the file and simply click 'Save' when done - no problems. I have approached several VBA MVPs on this and they can't figure it out. Has anyone contacted Microsoft directly or checked Technet?]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[There are not more than 1 person with access to this Excel file are there?If more than one person at a time is entering data or has the file open what you are describing is exactly what should be happening. As this user is attempting to use Excel as a Network DBase program when it's actually a desktop application only and can not accept input from different sources. If that's the case you are using the wrong Product and need to switch to M$ SQL not Excel.If that's not the case and as other things in Office are working properly I would give M$ a call to find out what their software is doing as you are only having this problem with 1 application in Office. They may have a known problem and a solution available for Excel.Col]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[The file in question is not read only.She's able to save the file to her local machine, then copies and pastes it successfully to the desired networked location, and she's been using this workaround since I initally posted this thread. But, of course, as all end users demand, she wants to be able to use the &quot;Save As&quot; option right from Excel 2003.She can create, edit and delete other types of files from other software programs such as Notepad and MS Word 2003.The problem seems to be isolated to the use of the &quot;save as&quot; option within Excel 2003. Only on this case she gets the error mentioned above.]]></description>
