Saving error

[BridgetWall]

I am working on seven-page document with graphics, formulas, and
objects within tables (greek letters from equation editor). Near the
very end of this project, I received an error:

"The disk is full trying to write to Macintosh HD. Free some space on
this drive, or save the document on another disk. Try one or more of
the following: close any unneeded documents, programs, and windows.
Save the document on another disk."

I emptied my trash, quit all programs and restarted. Problem was not
solved. I tried saving to a flash drive. Problem was not solved. I
opened a new word file and attempted to copy bits of the original file
over and save it. As soon as I hit the first table (about 1/10 into
the document), the same error appeared. I have been doing very
graphic and equation-heavy work lately, so the sudden nature of this
problem surprises me.

Is something wrong with equation editor? If so, how do I fix it? Any
ideas?

Thanks!

Hi Bridget;

It isn't the eq ed - it's either that the table or the section it's in is
corrupt. That's why you ran into the problem at the point you did
