Can't perform "save as" in Word 2000

[gavinmacqueen]

All of a sudden when I create a new document in word and try to do a "save as" I get this message:

This is not a valid
file name. Try one of the following:*check the path to make sure it was typed correctly.
*Select a file from the list of files and folders.

It doesn't matter what I name it or where I save it to, I cannot save a document and every time I try, I get this message. I can open an existing document, make changes and save without a problem....strange.
Anyone have any ideas?

Close Word and find normal.dot on your hard drive and rename it to abnormal.dot. See if that helps.
