You can save
documents/files by using either the Save or Save As command on the File
menu.

1. With the file you wish to save open, left click on File. File
is located at the top left side of your screen.
|

|
2. On
the drop down window, click Save.
|
| |
|
3.
If this is the first time you have saved the document, a box will appear
that will allow you to create a file name and select the folder you want
to the save the document in.
|
| |
|
4. Enter the file name* and
select the folder, then click Save or OK, depending upon the options provided
by your word processing program.
*Do
not use spaces or non-alphanumeric characters in your file names.

If you have
saved the document before, when you click on Save the document will automatically
overwrite the document you previously saved.
|

If you have already saved a version of the document and want to save this

you will need to left click on Save As. This will bring up the box that
