Saving your work
Before you turn off the computer, save your work on the hard disk
drive, diskette, flash media, or optical disc. 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.

name, this is all you need to do. If you created a new document,
your program displays a Save As dialog box.
Use this dialog box to specify where to store the document and
to give it a file name.
