Save As from chart sheet
 

I am using Excel 2K/Windows 2K. I have imported a CSV file and created charts
on chart sheets. The file is in the CSV format and a chart sheet is active,
when I click on the Save As option on the file menu, nothing happens - no
dialog box or anything. If I save the file as an Excel file and from a chart
sheet select Save As, I get a prompt to save over the existing file. If I use
Excel 2003, I do get the Save As dialog box from a chart sheet regardless if
the file is CSV or XLS. Is this new to 2003 or should I also be getting the
Save As dialog box in Excel 2000?

Save As from chart sheet
 

Because of the security update (MS0-6012), workbooks cannot be saved if
a chart sheet is active in Excel 2000. We emailed Microsoft tech
support about this bug, and here was their answer:

This problem does not exist in later versions of Excel.
This problem will not be fixed as Excel 2000 is beyond the scope of
non-security updates, coupled with the fact that this is non-essential
functionality (saving with a chart sheet in front) and is easily worked
around.

As is indicated on the site: www.microsoft.com/lifecycle
"Microsoft will continue to offer mainstream support for Office 2000
through June 30, 2004. The Office 2000 extended support period will
last from July 1, 2004 through July 14, 2009. The latest Office 2000
service pack is required for hotfix support."
"Other non-security hotfixes are indicated as: Available only with
purchase of Extended Hotfix Support Agreement"

Thank you! We were wondering if the latest security patch may have been the
culprit.
