Can't save - Command in process

[FazBear]

I have come across a problem in AutoCAD 2006. when modeling particularly when working with objects created in other software (solid works etc) I get a message saying command in process when I try to save. I have to close the drawing to be able to save it. any suggestions or anyone had anything similar?

Thank you!

I'll be sure to follow these instructions when the error comes up again.

Has the error appear on a drawing, still was unable to get around it :S had to close the drawing to save it.

Type SAVE and see if you can save it as another name.


Save is an older command, that must be typed on the command line. Think of it as a "Save Copy As" command.

that same error happens a lot on my Boss' computer.... like profcad says, type SAVE and it works quite nicely ;-)

Just hit the "X" to close then it should ask you to save. The "X" close forces the command active to end. But if it doesn't ..... we tried!
