Office application do not like documents on removable drives. Copy workbook
to harddrive before working on it. Or in place of a CD/R, use a USB thumb
drive - removable yes, but Excel does not seem to care.

I am putting excel files on a R/W cd. When I open the file and make some
changes I cannot save it because it says it is read only. I cannot save a
non-read only file to a CD without it changing to read only.
How do I correct for that
