Automatically disabled menu items

Hi all,

Under what circumstances will Cocoa's document-based architecture automatically disable the 'Save' menu item?

In my doc-based app, 'Save' is always greyed out wheras 'Save as...' is not. The document's file is writeable. I'm updating the document's change count, so 'Revert' works fine. 'Save as...' also works fine.

What might I be missing? The only non-standard thing I'm doing is returning NO for applicationShouldOpenUntitledFile (empty files are meaningless as my app is designed to populate existing files with metadata). If I return YES instead, 'Save' is enabled for a new file, but of course it's just hooked up to 'Save as...'.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Hamish
