Saving your work
Before you turn off the computer, save your work to the hard
disk drive or a diskette.
NOTE: Always save your data even when you are using the
Stand by command. If your battery fully discharges, your
information will be lost. Your computer can be configured to warn
you when the battery is running low, see “Using battery alarms” on
page 95.
Many programs offer a feature that saves documents at
regular intervals, such as every 15 minutes. Check your
programs’ documentation to see whether they have an
automatic save feature.
To save:
❖ A file you are updating, open the program’s File menu
and click Save.
❖ A new file, choose Save As from the File menu, type a
name for the file, and click OK.
HINT: To make another copy of the file you are currently working
with, choose Save As from the File menu and give the new file a
different name.
