Failed to save document

    So I go to save the assembly I've been working on and I get an error
    message that says "failed to save document". The same thing is
    happening with the drawing that goes with that assembly. But if I open
    a part from the assembly it saves just fine. I tried saving it to
    another location but that didn't work. Anyone have any ideas?

    I'm running SW2007 SP2.0

  2. Last night a guy ran into that here and he waited a minute or so and then
    they saved. His thought was that the machine was stuck on something and had
    to wait for that to finish.

    Nick,

    Just happened to see the same thing on a co-workers machine.

    SW2007 SP2.0 as well.

    You can get that message if any component within the assembly exists in
    a folder for which you do not have write permission. Might check your
    paths.

  5. That wouldn't explain the wait then save here that we saw. Certainly could
    be more than one factor.
