Besides WinNT? Are you running NT or NT Workstation? Does this happen when saving to a local drive? Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the application? Is the drive a permanant drive mapping or are you doing it on the fly, via network neighborhood or explorer or something?

I am trying to save the export to a permanantly mapped network drive. Some times it saves there, some times it doesn't. Its WindowsNT, not workstation. I can't recall if it happens when I try to save to a local drive, it happens fairly infrequently, and I just haven't noticed. No, I haven't tried re-installing the software, that would require involving the Computer Resource Center people, and a bunch of paperwork. I was hoping to avoid doing that.
