Save and Save As work in the same way when you first save a file. In both cases, a Save As dialog box opens so that you can select the drive and folder where you want to save the file and so that you can enter a filename for the new file. If you open, modify, and then save an existing file, Save will save the file under the same name on the same drive and in the same folder. Save As, on the other hand, will open a Save As dialog box, and you have the option of saving the file under a new filename, in a different folder, on a different drive, or by using any combination of these options.
