How to: |
Move the cursor to the menu bar by pressing the Home key or PF10. Press the Enter key so you can see the pull-down menu. Select either Save or Save As from the menu by moving the cursor to the appropriate item and pressing the Enter key. If you select Save, your keyboard will lock while the file is being saved.
