    Default qsave doesn't work

    In the drawing that I'm working in if I try to use the _qsave I get the following:

    Command: _qsave
    Document "M:\ST\395534 Michie MooseClubPark\395534 WallDesign.dwg" has a
    command in progress.
    Hit enter to cancel or [Retry]: *Cancel*

    The save command works, but I have to select the file each time and permit it to overwrite.

    Any suggestions?

    I saw this same error message recently when testing some custom .NET plug-ins that hooked the DocumentCollection.DocumentLockModeChanged Event... Basically, what this means is that you're attempting to invoke the QSAVE Command while the Document (read Drawing) is in a Locked state (for changes to be made to the Database programmatically).

    If you have internal customizations (i.e., .NET plug-ins, etc.), try preventing them from being loaded, and restart AutoCAD... If you have no such customization, then the issue may vary well be with your installation; perhaps a simple repair will do the trick (not sure).

    If you do managed to get it saved, then exit the drawing, exit AutoCAD, and restart and load the drawing again.....does it happen immediately again?
