You cannot save files onto a blank CD disk using a CD-ROM drive. A CD-ROM
drive is Read Only and doesn't write. You need a DVD/CD-RW drive.
Please post back with what optical drive you really have, what type of blank
media you are using, and with what program you are trying to burn a CD.

Thanks for reply, I am using XP Home Edition on a Compaq computer, I did make
a mistake as I am using a CD-RW not CD ROM. Am trying to put work done on
Excel onto CD. Have done this before, but suddenly won't let me. Hope I've
given you enough info.

Have just managed to find query in the archives, and appear to have sorted it
Many thanks for your help though
