When I save over an existing file using the GUI, it generates an error:

SAVE OUTFILE='J:\200404_200503_all.sav'
 /COMPRESSED.

>Error.  Command name: SAVE
>Error opening an SPSS system file: J:\200404_200503_all.sav: Bad file descriptor (DATA1201)
>This command not executed.


>Error # 1406.  Command name: SAVE
>Error when attempting to write a new data file.

When I repeat the operation using the GUI, it works.

Anyone else have this happen?
