74 Learning the Basics Saving your work ❖ Use Windows Explorer or My Computer to locate the program file ❖ Use the Run dialog box The Windows® XP tutorial chapter gives step-by-step instructions for starting a program from the Start menu. See "Lesson 6: Starting programs" on page 120. Saving your work Before you turn off the computer, save your work to the hard disk drive or a diskette. This is one of the most important rules of computing. You can never save your files too often. NOTE: Save your data even when you are using Standby mode, in case the battery discharges before you return to work. For more information about Standby and Hibernation, see "Powering down the computer" on page 93. Many programs offer a feature that saves documents at regular intervals, such as every 15 minutes. Check your program's documentation to see whether it has an automatic save feature. ❖ To save a file you are updating, open the program's File menu and click Save. ❖ To save the current file with a new name, 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.
