This operation saves the file you have created to the
disk.
To save data to floppy disk, it is first necessary to format
(initialize) the disk (page 269).
To name a newly saved file, press [F7]: NAME to
display the Name screen, and you can name the file (a
maximum of eight characters). For information on how
to name files, see below.
To write over already existing file names, it is
convenient to press [F8]: DIR and display the Directory
screen.
Pressing [F2] or [F3] key will display the disk files (on
the screen) in the order they were saved or in the
alphabetical order. You can search the file you need
quickly using these functions.
For information on the selectable types of data, see page
260.
When the size of the file is larger than the available space
on the floppy disk, “Disk Full” message will be displayed .
In this case, you can either delete unnecessary files to
create more available memory on the floppy disk, or start
the save operation once more with a different disk.
When you try to save a file which file name already
exists,” Overwrite? Are you sure?” confirmation message
will be displayed.
Take note that mistaken operations will erase
important data from your disk permanently.
