Hi

Please note I've *moved* this thread from the CAD Mgmt. General Forum to this one as I feel this particular Forum is a more appropriate place for such a topic.

Thanks, Mike

Have tried all of these solutions, none have worked, we are using AutoCAD 2005, same problem though, wish AutoDesk would actually get thier products right BEFORE shipping, begning to get as bad as Microsoft.

Are you saving to a network? Perhaps it is permission related?

[cwade]

The person that's having trouble saving has full administrator privileges to the network, so that's not it. As I said we have checked ALL of the solutions in all the posts, none have worked so far.

Is there by chance a lisp routine being used to save?

Has the save command been redefined?

How, exactly is this person saving?

I have heard some people say that their dwl files aren't being automatically deleted when they exit a drawing... do you think that could be your problem?
