Harry,

Is this the non-ASCII characters problem? I attached the screenshot as a

I guess yes. As the users is using a .docx file it is most likely a MSWindows user and there are non-ascii charachters in the filename. Unfortunately the file OS and the PSPP version is not mentioned in the bug report.

Upgrading to the MSWindows build of today should fix this. However in that case the file can be saved, but it is not clear whether the file, with that name, can be opened again. Many the filename and the path should be changed so there is no non-ascii character in the name before it can be opened.

Report whether this works or not are welcome. It seems what happens is not always the same as on my test system. Maybe some specific locale settings.

Have fun
