file can't be saved and a temp file is being
created under a new name

Followup question:

Did your system crash and need to be cold-booted while you were in Excel before this started happening?

If so, perhaps you should try uninstalling Excel and reinstalling it. Best would be to uninstall, defrag, reboot twice and install again forcing your harddrive to store it in a new place, but I have always gone for the overkill.

If this happens everytime you used Excel try to reinstall it, may be you get a problem with that Application. That temp file always created when you open a new documents or work sheet. Because of AUTOSAVE, this file is created. After you save your work and exiting the application the temp files will be gone..

hope this can..
