Cannot save in CR 10

I have come across this problem a handful of times and it very frustrating.

Sometimes when I start up a new report and work on it for a period of time, I go to save the report and nothing happens!! It seems as if the save function is not working. If I close the report (losing all my work) and start over, the save function works.

Is there something I'm doing wrong. Could there be something running that is blocking the save feature? Reports that I am creating are not that complicated. I do have running totals but not sure if that effected it.

I'm also thinking if there is a certain amount of time between saves that locks this up.

I've had to re-create too many reports and have had enough.

Any ideas?

 
Are you clicking on file, save? Or are you clicking on the diskette icon? If you are clicking on the diskette icon does it grey out immediately after saving?

It does not work either way. The disk icon does not grey out either.

If I go to close the report, it asks if I want to save it. I hit yes and nothing happens either.
 
Sounds like something is not right! I'd reinstall. I would download the latest patches as well.

Hi,
Just to be sure, check where it is trying to save it and be sure it is a location you have rights to .

A similar thing has happened to me with 10, but it was just taking an incredibly long time to save!
