If you try to save a PIF file and get the error message 

  Cannot create PIF file

check the pathname entry in the Program Name field to be
sure that the directory specified already exists. The Windows PIF
Editor (PIFEDIT.EXE) requires that the directory specified in this
field be created before the PIF file can be saved.
