Problem saving a document file to a rewritable CD
Fred W B - 7/9/05 at 05:56 PM

Please bear with me, I'm not very computer literate

I'm saving a document file to a rewritable CD, that I want to take to another computer, access the file, and modify and save it again.

So I save the file, but when I reopen it from CD and modify it, I cannot resave it, even under a new name, as it comes up as "read only".

I've tried every thing I can find with regard to the setup of the original file, and the CD drive, but nothing seems to work

Is there something simple I'm missing?

Cheers

Just spend the money and buy another CD, or are you saving for the wallnut dash?

If its only a document, then it will probably fit on a good old floppy disk. So use one of them , or just email it to each other?

Both Xp and Nero seem to set rights to RO by default
