Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

FILE SAVE
 
Procedures: <Saving a document>
 
Use the File Save command to save the <active>
document to a disk with the current name and
<file format>.
 
■ When you save a document for the first time,
  Word prompts you, with the Save As dialog box,
  to give your document a filename.
 
■ When you save a document, Word creates a
  temporary copy in a backup file that is listed
  with a .BAK extension.
 
■ Word saves documents with all formatting unless
  you specify a special format.
 
■ To name or rename a document before you save
  it, use the File Save As command.
 
■ When you close documents or exit Word, you are
  reminded to save any modified documents.
