Word in Microsoft Office 2008 saves without saving

Here’s a nice bug for ya. One of the users at work has a Word document, and when she uses “Save As…” to save the file to another location everything looks normal. But Word never saves the file! It’s non existant! This is only if the setting for compatibility with Office 2004 is set.

This isn’t the first time something like this happened, you also have the infamous “Let’s delete the Powerpoint file before saving and then crasch“-bug where users where left without a document after saving.

You see a lot of reviews of Office 2008, but it feels like no one has the guts to call the pig a pig…
