Re: "Word cannot complete the save due to a file permission error"

Don't ever save directly to a floppy (much less open directly from one).
That's one of the quickest ways to corrupt your file. Instead, save to the
hard drive and then copy or Send to the floppy.

Please help me fix this problem. I have no idea what a "file permission
error" is... I've been using Office 2000, I still am using Office 2000
and
this is the first time i've seen this. I was trying to save to a 1.44
meg
floppy. The file is 224 k. Please tell me why i can't save this file.
(By the
way, the disk has 1.11 megs of used space)
