What's
the biggest disaster you've ever had working on a
presentation? |  |
|
I
was in Italy, where I had finished preparing a
presentation on different types of pasta. It was three
months' work.
|
|
 |
The
Italians have a lot of different types of pasta. |
|
Uh...ya,
Jim. Lots of pasta. Anyway, I had just put in the
finishing touches when "Bam!". The power went
out. |
|
Oh,
that must have been terrible. You lost all that work! |
|
|
Fortunately,
I had been saving my work, so I managed to recover it all.
My recommendation to all your viewers is: Save your work!
That night I could have been scrambling to redo my
presentation. Instead, I was riding a gondola in Venice. |

Saving Your Presentation
While working on a presentation, it's a good idea to save
your work often. Otherwise, you risk losing your work. The
next steps show you how to save your presentation to your
hard drive for the first time, using the Save As command.
1. Click the File menu, and then click
Save As. The Save As dialog box will appear.
2. In the File name box, type a name for
your presentation.
The presentation is now saved to your hard drive.
Once you've saved the presentation for the first time,
periodically save it by clicking the File menu,
then clicking Save. Or, click the Save button on
the Standard toolbar.
