When trying to update a excel spreadsheet from an auxillary application the
error message "Cannot save file" is encountered on a irregular basis.

This is more prevalent in a Windows 98 OS/ Office 2000 environment.

We believe there might be a setting in excel 2000 that will circumvent this

Thank You
 
When this happens to people who are running excel interactively, the two most
common suggested culprits are interference from the antivirus program and
incorrect permissions on the (network?) drive that you're writing to.

(and maybe actual hardware problems, too.)

You may want to try turning off your antivirus (temporarily). If that doesn't
help, maybe try writing to a local harddrive.

(I don't know of any setting in any version of excel that will help this kind of
problem.)
