COMMON COMMANDS - SAVING YOUR WORK

The sequence of commands is:- Hold Down the ALT key and press the letter F, the focus will then be placed on the top option of the File menu, which is New. By use of the UP and Down Cursor keysThunder will announce the various options. Stop when Thunder announces Save As. press Return/Enter and the computer will take you through the steps required to Save your work.

Your work will be saved but it is still on the screen. Be precise about the name because one day you will have hundreds of files and you will want to find the right one. But once you have given a file its name, you will not need to type it in over again. i.e. press ALT + F, CURSOR DOWN, Thunder will announce Save, then press the RETURN/ENTER key and your work will be saved.
