If you load a read-only .CAL data file into Calendar and then select the File Menu Save As command, an error message similar to the following is displayed.
Cannot Save File;
Check to ensure the path and filename are correct and, if applicable, the network is running.
To save the file, you must remove the file's read-only attribute. You can do this with the MS-DOS Attrib command, as follows:

attrib -r <filename>.cal

where <filename.cal> is the name of the read-only .CAL data file.
