    Getting Error Message when I try to save file in Excel

    In Excel 2007, when saving a file, we get the following message. "Errors were detected while saving FILENAME. Excel may be able to save the file by removing or repairing some features". If we click continue, it gives us the file selection screen to "save as". Press enter, and we get "The file already exists. Do you want to replace the existing file. If click "yes", the next message is "No errors were detected in FILENAME. No repairs were necessary". Click OK and it saves the file. I have searched newsgroups, but only find references to TrendMicro AV or MS Livecare possibly causing the problem; neither of which we have. Any help would be appreciated.

    There can be number of reasons for that. First there might be some kind of invalid characters in the file name or the location where you are saving might have bad sectors. So first you can do is try to modify the place of saving file and then check back.
