When I try to delete, save, or change name with an Excel doc, I get this
message: "Cannot delete '<file name': Access is denied. Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use." The document is not "read only" when I click on properties for the document. How do I delete? Thanks -- richn13 |

Sounds like you opened the file from either a network folder that you have
only read access to, or you've opened the file directly off a CD. -- Kevin Backmann "richn" wrote: When I try to delete, save, or change name with an Excel doc, I get this message: "Cannot delete '<file name': Access is denied.

This is the main computer of a 2 computer network, and there are two users on
this computer. This has never happened with one user, but sometimes with the other user. Any ideas on how to correct?
