Save As

After choosing Save using one of the two methods described on the previous page, the Save As dialog box appears.

To Specify a File Location:

• Open the Save In: drop down list box.
• Choose 31/2 floppy (A:) if saving to a floppy disk.
• Choose (C:) if saving to your hard disk.
• Name your file in the File name: box.
• Click OK.

If you do not choose a file name, Office 2000 applications assign a file name for you. It assigns the first line of text in you document, unless you give it a different name when prompted in the File name box.

If you do not specify a file location, Office uses the My Documents folder as the default location. So, if you can't find a file, check My Documents.

After Naming and Saving a File Once:

• Click the Save button on the Standard toolbar.
  Or,
• Go to the File menu and choose Save. You will not get a Save As dialog box again.

IMPORTANT WARNING:

Save periodically when you are working in an application. If you lose information, you will be sorry!
