Have you checked the space available on the flash drive?
Have you been able to save files before? More probable ... Best practice is not to open a file or save a file directly to a flash drive. In Excel, save the file to a HD or Server. Then copy the file to the flash drive. Sometimes the flash memory of USB connection is too slow for Excel.

Dennis,
Thank you so very much. I did not know how to check space available on my 512 MB San Disk. All it needed was a little deleting the unnecessary files. I have had no trouble saving files before and was successful in saving to the flash drive this time.
