Having seen the postings just above I tested and can confirm a problem 
with Save As

OS Win8.1

SaveAs xml      hangs, not responding
SaveAs sqlite3  ditto

*but*

SaveAs postgres works [1]

[1] server running on the same Win8.1 system

that would suggest a Win file system issue rather than a generic SaveAs 
on Win issue.

The kill also leaves the originally opened file in an uncertain state 
after termination which may be disconcerting if transactions have been 
entered before SaveAs rather than my test Open, SaveAs sequence.

I think this might necessitate another build :(
