I have at least 2 workbooks that I have been using for years. All of a sudden this morning, I am unable to save them. I get this message:

If I click "continue" and try to save to another location, this same message appears, and then I have to use Task Manage to shut down Excel. It is not happening with every workbook, strangely.
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
Should have checked for updates before I posted here. Updated Office (which I thought was automatic) and now no problems.

I wanted to give it a few days to make sure the problem was corrected, and sure enough, it is back. Excel doesn't allow me to save the original, then asks if I want to save under another name, but does not allow me to save.
