resaving a file

[donnm]

Q1 When saving a certain .dft files especially to .dwg a message appears "cannot save file you may not have write-access for the file or directory"
What is the cause of this?

Q2 In the assembly environment after editing a part,I want to close and return,I click the file button and Solid Edge crashes. Could someone help?

We need to know your version and service pack of Solid Edge and Windows.

I also experienced the same type of problem few times.
Opened a parasolid file in SE 14 and trying to save as part file,it gives a message.. "Cannot save file, you may not have write-access for the file or directory"

Any solutions..

Thanks

What version and service pack of windows are you running? Are you on a network? Are you trying to save to the network or locally? Do you run Insight?

If you enter a slash character(/) (\)in the file name it will give you this same message.

Geo12,
I get the same error when trying to save imported customer files that I forgot to remove the read only permissions from.

Yep, same hapened with us in version 8 and 10.. Bummer is, saving on your own computer (not over the network) will work. Relocating the file to the server, and everything is working again...
It might have something to do with the windows-setup (NT4 we used), but we got over it by installing V12 in the end.

Regards,

We get this problem with V11 over network when network has had a blip (or gone down and restarted). Sometimes we can't even save the file locally. You certainly learn the value of saving often after that happens. The network (Win NT4)reestablishes the connections to the mapped drives but seems to lose the connections to the opened files. They basically become orphans.
