Saving Large .xls file to external drives
When I try to save some large .xls files to an external drive, I get a
warning that the disk is full and that the file cannot be saved. I know that there is more than enough room on the external drive to save these files (I'm saving 5.4 MB files to a drive with 36 GB of free space). Any suggestions? |

What happens if you save the file first on your hard disk, and then try and copy it to the external disk? Any similar errors? |
