Spreadsheets can be saved in three ways and they are listed below. You can also save a file as a CSV file.

From the menu bar

Click File and then select Save (or Save All or Save As).

From the toolbar

Click on the Save button Save-icon.jpg on the Function bar. If the file has been saved and no subsequent changes have been made, this button is grayed-out and unselectable.

From the keyboard

Use the key combination Control+S.

If the spreadsheet has not been saved previously, then each of these actions will open the Save As dialog. Here you can specify the spreadsheet name and the location in which to save it.
