Error message when trying to save modified maintenance plan?

I have a maintenance plan created that have been running for a few months.
Now I want to modify the plan and selected Modify on the plan and got into
an editor with the different steps. I selected "Edit" on the Backup step and
changed the name of the destination folder and clicked OK in that dialog.
When I try to save the modified maintenance plan, I only get an error dialog
with "No description found".
What is the problem?
OlavHi
I am not sure about the error, you may want to use SQL Profiler to find the
statement causing the error and try to run this manually. The quickest
solution may be to drop the maintenance plan and re-create it from scratch.

the changes I get an error message saying "No description found" - this even
happens when I try to rename the maintenance plan. The changes are not saved
and the maintenance plan executes ok.
I can create new plans using the wizard but not from scratch. I have
upgraded to SP1 (9.00.2047.00, SP1, Standard Edition running on Win2003 SP1)
Recreating maintenance plans each time I want to modify them is not an option.
Does any one have a solution ?

tasks in them. I tried creating a new plan without using the wizard and when
I try and save it I get the error. If I create a plan using the Wizard its
fine (even if it has a clean up task) However if I then try and alter the
plan I get the message.

You may have to log a call with PSS.
