Saving Spreadsheets

Spreadsheets can be saved in three ways.

• Press  Control  +  S .
• Choose File → Save (or Save All or Save As).
• Click the  Save  button on the main toolbar.

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

If the spreadsheet has been previously saved, then saving it using the Save (or Save All) command will overwrite an existing copy. However, you can save the spreadsheet in a different location or with a different name by selecting File → Save As.
