Vista "save as" issue

During the browse part of the "save as" function, if I accidentally hover the
cursor
over a file, that file name is picked up. I can overide it with the name
I want to use, as is usual in XP, but when I hit "save" the pop up "file
already exists
do you want to replace it?" comes up with the hovered over file name not the
name
I just typed in.
The only way to get around it is to start the "save as" function all over
again and be very careful not to let the cursor get near a file while
browsing.
Thanks for any Help.

Hi Ehornick,

I experience that issue too. Only thing I do is to just make sure that cursor is out of the window after I click the browse. Hopefully MS will come out with a update for it one day. (LOL)
