save a file on a CD.
 
I want to save a file on a CD. When I try, I'm told it is not a legal
operation ( or something to that effect) and that I must get permission from
the 'Administrator". Who would that be??

save a file on a CD.
 
If you're using File|SaveAs (or its xl2007+ equivalent), then you'll want to
make sure that the drive you're using allows you to use it this way.

One of my drives has a DLA (Direct Line Access???). This allows this drive to
be used the way file|SaveAs would need.

The other doesn't allow this.

In any event, I wouldn't do this. I think it'll cause more trouble than it's
worth.

Instead, I'd save to my harddrive and use the CD writing software to put the
file on the CD.
