When I try to save a document in Excel I keep getting a text box error
message saying "Document Not Saved". There isn't any other information, just
an okay button. Also, the Auto-Recovery was just disabled.

Any ideas?
 
We'll need more info! What is the name of the document? Where do you want
to save to? Drive A:, B:, C:, D: or E:. How much space do you have left on
that drive? Does this happen with only a specific file, or with every file
you try and save? What happens when you try and save to a different location?
 
Kassie,

I didn't try to save it to another drive. I did make it smaller and then I
was successful in saving it. I have no problems saving other documents or
programs. The DOS name of the file is NIEREN~2.XLS, but the name of the file
in my documents is Nierenberg'sToDoList Sept 5 07, and I was trying to
re-save it after opening it on the desktop. It is 75KB. I was trying to save
it to the C drive which is 144GB and has 114GB of free space.

Does that answer all the right questions?
 
What happens if you re-open the file, add back your original data, and then
try to save again? Based on the name, it appears that this is more a list of
tasks, rather than a complex sheet containing stacks of formulae. Maybe it
was a temperamental PC acting up at the time?
