Hi Enno, The described USBStick problem sounds very strange. Currently it is difficult to imagine a case when the Save operation fails and the SaveAs operation to the same name succeeds ( just because the SaveAs operation would try to create a backup of the existing document as well, and in the same way ). Could you please clarify some questions: - on which version of the OOo the problem is reproducible? - was the memory stick disconnected during the document editing?
