Usually that means that you're using a reserved character in the file name. Windows and OS X have certain characters reserved for the OS, characters that refer to the directory or path of the file. For example, the colon : or the slash \ will give you problems.
Try saving with a new name such as TEST and see if that works for you.

| It's also been suggested that the file may be a "read only" file?? Is there a way to change it from a read only file? BTW,,,no other characters than the word itself is used. |

Right click on the file and choose Properties. On the General opening tab, at the bottom, are the Attributes. Uncheck Read Only and click Apply. You may need to ack the UAC challenge to make this change.

User Account Control. The box that asks for Administrator permission or password before you are allowed to make changes to the operating system, or drivers.
