Bob,
That brings a question to mind that is perhaps a bit OT. I understand not
saving to, or opening files from "removable media", but I am wondering if
this general rule still applies to flash drive media? With the way Vista can
use flash memory, and the way you can carry around free standing email
clients, and other programs on flash drives, it would seem that maybe this
general rule does not apply to flash media. Have you read anything or
experienced anything that talks about this? Is there the same level of risk
of file corruption with flash media?

If you reread the message I think you'll find that it was telling him that
the *device* - not the file - was Read Only :)
Don't try to save directly to the removable media from any program. Use
the
Windows Explorer (or your disk burning software in the case of a CD/DVD)
to
copy the file. Likewise don't attempt to Open a file directly from the
removables either. The perils are well documented throughout the
newsgroups
if you want to search for more detail:)

Hi,
My mentor used MS Publisher to write a book and saved it on his
computer's hard drive. He was trying to save it to CD-R and CD-RW but
for some reason the E: (CD) drive kept saying that the file was 'read-
only'. But the read-only attribute was not selected in the file's
properties. Also when he tried the 'Save as' feature, the File type
automatically selected was 'Publisher Files'. And again, if the file
wouldn't save on a CD-R or CD-RW because it kept saying 'read-only',
then would using a Flash Drive/USB PenDrive help to save the publisher
document without any hassles? Please help!! Thanks in advance.
