Saving your work

Before you turn off the computer, save your work to the hard disk
drive or a diskette. This is one of the most important rules of
computing. You can never save your files too often.
NOTE: Save your data even when you are using Standby
mode, in case the battery discharges before you return to
work. For more information about Standby and Hibernation
modes, see
Many programs offer a feature that saves documents at regular
intervals, such as every 15 minutes. Check your program's
documentation to see whether it has an automatic save feature.
To save a file you are updating, open the program's File menu
and click Save.
To save the current file with a new name, choose Save As
from the File menu, type a name for the file and click OK.
HINT: To make another copy of the file you are currently
working with, choose Save As from the File menu and give
the new file a different name.
