I provide a name to the FilePicker interface, click Save and the loop continuous, redisplaying the dialog. To resolve the issue, I added bExit = sal_True after line 1513 so that the loop discontinuous. I am not sure if this will have effects in other situations, maybe someone can provide some feedback, but for now. I am able to save.

I don't know if either of you has had a look at the bugs for Writer. 
There are a number of them dealing with Save issues. It would be very 
helpful if you could augment an existing issue with your findings.

See search:
