Excel uses [] in the filename if you reference an external
workbook in a formula, that may be the reason.

Hi,

While using Save As functionality, i am puttin Square Braces "[ ]" in
the file name. e.g abc[1].xls. But getting a weired error saying

This file could not be accessed.

Excel is a member of the Office suite ( I was told when I bought Office
Professional) but the programmers felt free to break general rules. One
more incentive to go to Linux!
