Since the script we created already has a filename to use, the first call to the Save Script command silently saves the file as the file name specified in Script Info. Once given, each successive call to Save Script will ask you if you want to overwrite the file.
(Clicking 'No' opens the Save As box, see below.)

Show how to save the script

1. Click on File on the program menu.
2. Click on Save Script.

The Save Script As command allows you to interactively save the file, so you can re-name it, select what folder it's saved to, or change the type. This is done with the Save As dialog box, which operates very similarly to Windows Explorer.

Show how to open the Save As dialog box

1. Click on File on the program menu.
2. Click on Save Script As...
3. The Save As dialog box appears, as shown below.

Click each area of the window below for a description of each control:

Save As dialog Click on any control in the image at right, and see a brief description of it here. Save In This combo box shows the currently selected folder where the file will be saved, and when clicked drops down to list all of the folders on your computer. Back button Returns to the previous folder that was visited. Up A Level This button changes to the parent folder of the currently selected one. New Folder This button creates a new sub-folder in the current folder. By default, it is named "New Folder", and shows up in the file list ready to be re-named. View Type Use this to change the kind of view that's displayed in the file list: Large Icons, Small Icons, List, or Details. File List This area displays all of the folders and files in the currently selected 'Save In' folder. What's displayed here also depends on the View Type, and what File Type is selected. File Name This shows the name that the file will be saved as. File Type This lists all of the available file formats that can be saved, and also filters the files that are displayed in the File List. Save button This button saves the file using all of the information provided, then closes the dialog box. Cancel button Closes the dialog box without saving the file. Navigation Icons Clicking on these icons changes the current folder to the special folder it represents: Recent Documents, the Desktop, the My Documents folder, My Computer, or My Network Places. Title bar The title bar allows you to move the dialog around on the screen, provides context help by clicking the ? button, and by clicking on the X button, another way of closing the dialog.

For an exercise, use the "Save As" command to save the example script we've been working on. Give the script a new file name: Listec Tutorial script, and save it in the current folder.
