Saving your work

Before you turn off the computer, save your work on the hard
disk drive, diskette, flash media, or CD. This is one of the
most important rules of computing.
Saving documents is quick and easy, so it is a good idea to get
in the habit of saving frequently.
Many programs offer a feature that saves documents at
regular intervals. Check your program's documentation to see
if it has an automatic save feature.
If you know the program's location, type the
command line. For a program in the Windows
folder, type just the program name. Otherwise, type
the full file path. For example, to access WordPad,
type:
c:\Program Files\Windows NT\Accessories\wordpad.exe,
then click OK.
HINT: To run the same program again, click the arrow to the
right of the text box and select the command line from the
drop-down list.
If you do not know the location, you can search for it
by clicking Start, then Search, and then following
the on-screen instructions.
TECHNICAL NOTE: Save your data even when you are using
the Standby command, in case the main battery discharges
before you return to work.
