your other thread on this problem (Excel 2003 + Perl) says this fails when you run this through asp?. Is this still the case?

A quick google shows this error to be associated with not using a full file path, and permission problems. As you are using a full path, I'd suggest you print the result of -w to see if you can write to the file.

if (! -w $savename) {
    print "uh oh\n";
}
