Why am blocked from saving an .odt text document open in Abiword?

I have been working on a text document, but when I try to save it, I get:

Code: Select all

"Writing error when attempting to save file."

The file is on a FAT32 USB (external) harddrive. C'mon man, I just can't get a break.

Seriously, how does anyone work like this?

What size is the file?

Is the location mounted?

is .odt a file option provided by Abiword?

Abiword is always doing strange things.

I would suggest installing LibeOffice and using it's writer program.
Or
Install OpenOffice and use it.
