A couple of wild guesses:

Your table wouldn't happen to be a so-called "linked" table? That is a
kind of a view, involving 3 tab files on disk. Those are strange in some
ways.

You could also try to save the result as a MIF file and see if that
works better.

Or perhaps there are some meta data in the TAB file header that prevents
saving.

ok next ...

1. copy data to hard drive
2. change file attributes so they aren't read-only
3. recreate the query
4. try to save the query back to hard drive as the dataset 'test'
5. same error message "unable to create new table"

this is weird
