I cannot for the life of me get the program to "plot to file"..... My
screen does not show a location option....but anyway, when I choose plot to
file and create the file.plt name, nothing ever comes up as available.... I
have tried this in both 2004 and 2006....

I am plotting with a HP 500 and can plot fine, but cannot save a plt file.

My HP500 is on a network. When I go to plot and pick plot devices, there

is a box to pick for plotting to a file. It is in the center of the
popup and just above the filepath and location box. Hope this helps.
