Save/Save as not working in Excel 97. OS is win98. We can save after editing the existing file but not save as.

If it is only happening with this file try clicking on the small square in the upper left-hand corner next to the column and row identifiers. This will select the entire sheet. Go to edit>copy and then open excel in a new window. select edit>paste and then try to save as.

If that does not work or this problem exists with all excel files, backup all your excel files and then uninstall excel and reinstall it.

I hope this helps.

I appreciated your method, but that i had already tried. I have reinstalled the complete msoffice which has resolved this issue and the problem is only coming with the excel. The last option which i have to tried deleting all the entries from registry if i will not get any solution.
Thanks for your suggestion

If you are on a network, one possibility could be the permissions associated with either the file, the appliation folder, or the application.

The PC is on Network but the msoffice is loaded individual to that PC only. The problem is only coming to new excel worksheet. Old worksheet is able to save but not save as option.
