server permissions? you haven't got the right permissions to write to the disk: hence it shows as 'full' as far as you the user is concerned?

other than that, no idea. i'm not a PC/windows server kinda person.

Permissions should be good, as I said I have been working on this for a while now with no problems before. And I have no problem saving PLN and I just tried a different LBK and that was ok too.
It would be nice to be able to save this file as we're ready to issue the drawings.

Also tried Save As with different name, still no good.

try 'save as...' to your local drive, drag it across to the server and then open and save from there?

Tried that, got a "disk full" message, which is hard to believe as we have just had our server upgraded to 4x80Gb hard drives (from 1x40Gb). Am onto our computer consultants.

Thanks ~/archiben, good tip.

Problem solved.

Apparently There was a quota mangement system in place, and I had reached my quota (does that mean I can go home for the rest of the day? I think not) so the problem was with our server setup (by others!)

Now, back to work.....
