File Save Saving Error Files

[supersprdsht]

I have an Excel workbook with a lot of VBA code. Sometimes when I do a File, Save, it saves the spreadsheet as just a file (with the Windows icon) and names the file some combination of letters and numbers (5BF7D310, CC319E00, F8A29E00). If I open these files into Excel, they look fine.

Any ideas on what might be causing this error?????

Here is a thought on your reported problem.

The eight-character given to your files smacks of the old DOS eight-character filename limits. And, the alphanumeric names smack of hexadecimal numbers. Perhaps, if you provide pairs, consisting of the alphanumeric filename and the actual Excel filename, somebody could come up with a correlation that will shed some light on this, or, even better, how this occurs and how to avoid it.
