Saving files
1
On the File menu of your Windows
®
program, click Save.
If you are working with a document that already has a file
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.

The Windows

operating system supports file names of up to

still require file names limited to eight characters.
