you want to give to your document and click on Save button.
3.8.1 Saving New Changes
There may be a situation when you open an existing document and edit it partially or
completely, or even you would like to save the changes in between editing of the document.
If you want to save this document with the same name then you can use either of the
following simple options:
(a) Press Ctrl + S keys to save the changes.
(b) Click on the floppy icon available at the top left corner and just above the File tab.
(c) Use the Save option available just above the Save As option under File tab.
If your document is new and it was never saved so far, then with any of the three
options, word would display you a dialogue box to let you select a folder, and enter
document name as explained earlier.
Note:
Choose Save As to rename a document. Be careful not to overwrite your original
file.
Save periodically when you are working in an application. Losing information is
never fun. You can quickly save by using the quick- key combination Ctrl + S.
3.9 CLOSING A DOCUMENT
When you are done editing a document file, you need to close it. Closing a file simply
removes the file from your screen but keeps your Word program running so you can edit or
open another file. If you have not saved your file, closing a file will prompt you to save your
changes.
To Close a File:
1. Click the File tab.
The Backstage View appears.
2. Click Close. If you have not saved your file, a dialog box appears asking whether
you want to save your changes.
(For a faster way to choose the Close Command, press Ctrl+F4.)
