If you are accessing the file over a network server or drive, the
problem is your PC's connection to the server or server folder is
timing out: could be your network card, could be your network
connection, could be the way your server is configured etc.
You will need to consult with your network admin person and see
if the problem can be addressed in Windows or the server
settings.

> I've got one file that doesn't want to save. What happens is
that I go to save, get a "file in use" error message and it
creates a ac$ backup file. If I try to delete the file, I get a
"file in use" error. I can't write over the top of it either. No
one else is using the file. Why?
