Default converter failed to save the file

Does the file actually reside in a folder you have rights to? If an
e-mail attachment, have you saved it first? Is your anti-virus
interfering and attempting to scan the file, and thereby locking it out?

Just, a thought but have you tried cleaning out the Temporary Internet

I'm trying to use the 2007 file converter for 2003, and I keep getting
"converter failed to save the file" error everytime I try to open a 2007 file
- prior to this it tells me that it cannot find the file, then trys to
convert it ("File conversion in progress"), then gives me "converter failed
to save the file"... All the updates are installed - what's going wrong...!

Microsoft gives no clues on this...
