I can update & save a form using Adobe Reader 6 & 7 but it will not let me save it in Reader 8. It tells me that I have to fill in the form and then print it. What's going on and how can it be fixed?

You need to be sure the file is enabled with Adobe Reader usage rights. The document needs the addition of special features (created via a simple menu command in Acrobat Pro 8) in order for the Reader user to save the data.
