  1. Hi,

    Go back to the AutoCAD window, type VBAMAN, select the file and choose
    SAVEAS.

    to add an additional macro, but get an error in Autocad "Failed to Save
    File" whenever I try to modify and save the file.
    no password protection on the file.

    I have a single file that contains all of our vba macros. I am attempting to add an additional macro, but get an error in Autocad "Failed to Save File" whenever I try to modify and save the file.

    The file is located on a network where I have permissions to read/write/change.

    I tried to copy the file to my hard drive, but that didn't help. There is no password protection on the file.

    Any ideas?

    If other users have the file loaded, you won't be able to save. (Think of
    it like an open drawing file.)

    I keep a working copy on an isolated folder, then copy it to the network
    location when updating.

  4. If anyone has loaded the networked .dvb, you cannot save to it. I don't know
    what caused your local error.

    Try Debug>Compile. It might highlight some compile errors keeping you from
    saving.
