Saving Projects for the First Time

     • Saving is an extremely important skill to master when working with files.
     • It is best to save the project right away when the project is first opened,
       so the file is saved in the desired location and that it is saved with an appropriate name
     • Whenever a new project is opened, by default it is named Document 1 or Book 1 or Presentation 1, etc.
        depending on the project you are in
     • A quick way to see if the file is already saved, for the first time, is to look at the title bar. If it says
       Document 1, then the document has not been saved for the fist time yet.

     Save by following these steps:

1. Go to FILE on the menu bar and click SAVE AS.

2. The ‘Save As’ dialog box will open.

3. Click on the drop down menu where it says SAVE IN. CLICK to the location where you want to save your file

4. Look in the box that says FILE NAME. Type in a name for your new file. Word automatically types in the first line that you may have typed on your page.

5. Click on the SAVE button.
