Deep breaths...
I've been working on a paper for a long time now, and I just tried to save it, and Word gave me this error:
"Word cannot complete the operation because too many files are open. Word Work File A_246."
When I clicked "OK" another box poped up proclaiming:
"Saving autorecovery is postponed for XXXXX.doc"
Now if I try to save the paper it simply says "Word cannot complete..." same as the first error message, only without the error number, and it won't let me save it. I quit all the other programs i had running, and I don't have any other documents open in word, just this one I'm working on. It is longer, currently 3331 words, but it's certainly not loooong. I've been working on it for the past week though, and loosing it would be something akin to what my old 266mhz pc would pull running WordPerfect. i'd be very tempted to throw this nice new powerbook right out the window...
it's word v.x and the powerbook is a new 15", loaded to the brim... Oh I'd appreciate some helpful words...
(PS: helpful words shoudn't come in the form of scolding a good little mac user for running a M$ program... that's a whole 'nother debate.)
