Default Trying to save a PowerPoint Document

I am getting a message that says Powerpoint can't access my file in order to
save it because the file name is in valid. How do I fix this?

What version of PowerPoint are you using? Have you applied all the updates?
This was a common problem when 2003 came out originally. Try going to the
Help menu and choosing Check for Updates. Follow all the instructions there
to apply the latest service packs.

Does your file name or path include unconventional characters like commas?
