 He can open and save such files, but is not permitted to resave them. Could 
 someone with Win 8.1 please check this out?


I responded on the forum.  I was not able to reproduce the reported behavior.

 The workaround is obviously to use longer, meaningful file names, but this 
 problem, if confirmed, might indicate a parsing diffiulty with the filename 
 and/or its lock file.

Thanks Rob. There was need of assessment from a reliable source. His problem 
will probably go away with a new User Profile, if he can be persuaded to do 
that.
