Hi all, I have one beginner question, when I create new script I have issue to save it. Whatever I put as name before .tas is not valid, nothing happened. I am using Toad data point 5.3.0.333 (64 bit) Thank you in advance ---

Welcome to the TDP forum... Can you describe in detail the steps you are using to save your automation script? I personally can't reproduce. Latest version is 6.0, BTW. Just guessing, but are you attempting to save the .TAS file in a dir location you don't have privs to write to? ---

Actually, I have privs because I already saved script. Anyway, yesterday I found that it is just u bug, because if I click enter it is saved, but if I click on button to save it's failed. Thank you for your reply.
