"Disk is full" or "Document not saved" in XL

[CICTech]

In excel 2002 we are getting "Disk is full" errors or just plain "Document not saved" There is 136 Gigs free on the network drive we are sending it to, and 80 gigs free on the workstation. If we do "save as" multiple times it will finally save. Has anyone seen this before? Thank you in advance!

you may just need to clean out the temp folder:

I am running Windows XP and 2000 (this is happening on several workstations) With office XP professional I am not sure about the temp folder, but I will take a look at it. Thanks

Start-Run and type:

%temp%

Clear out that folder.
Make sure there's no apps running when you do it.

This is most likely due to a corrupt excel file that u are using... maybe u inserted a graph or picture if so delete it.... if u have not inserted any objects (chars, pics, equation editor)

Try the following

Copy the worksheet
open a new excel (start--> programs--->excel) (basically open excel again...do make a new sheet)

paste the worksheet. and try to save it...it should work

I cleared out the temp folder and that didnt do anything. I am going to look into deleting some of the pivot tables on the sheet and see if that helps
