The only time I have seen this message - and I see it quite a lot - it's been due to the activities of antivirus software. In your case, on the server. Ask your server admin whether: . They are using AV software . If yes, the AV software has been recently upgraded What seems to cause this message is that during the save process, FrameMaker creates a temporary file in the same directory but with a hexadecimal file extent, and saves to that. On completing the save, it tries to delete the original .fm file and then rename the hex file to the same name as the .fm file, but the AV software interferes with this process. However, this cannot be the entire explanation, because usually with this message FrameMaker also creates a message to say that the file has actually been saved, and indeed although I have rashes of these messages when I forget to turn my AV software off, I've never lost work through them. -- Steve
