Anyone come across this, existing MS word document, not huge < 1mb, couple of tables and a few embedded excel charts. Trying to insert another excel chart and it won't save anywhere. Message reads 'The disc (server and hard, tried both) is too full or too many files are open'. Rebooted, reinstalled word and defraged - all the usual suspects. It's win and office 2000. I suspect I'm up against a word bug here - anyone seen this ?

I used to get a similar problem with word 97. It was cause when I cut and pasted pictures in rather than importing them. My solution at was to select the whole document, copy, shut word leaving the contents of the clipboard intact, restart word and paste. It usually solved the glitch though might be irrelevant in this case.
