Step 2: If the spreadsheet has not been saved previously, the Save As dialog box will appear.

Step 3: Type the name in “File Name” list box. OpenOffice Calc Spreadsheets are stored with extension .ods by default.

Step 4: Click “Save” button.

After clicking the save button, the given file name is displayed in the title bar as shown in Figure 9.24.


Note: The saved file is stored in the "Document folder" by default.

What is save?

Technically saving is a process of transferring or shifting contents from primary memory (RAM) to Secondary storage medium such as Hard disk, Pen drive, memory chip etc.

 

Auto Save:

 

The OpenOffice saves a file at regular intervals. This is called as “Auto Save” feature. The default time interval is 15 minutes. It can be reduced even to one minute. If any unexpected shutdown occurs, this feature will recover your file.

After saving the worksheet; it remains open. So, you can continue to working with the spreadsheet. When the work is finished, you should save using File Save (or) Click “Save” icon (or) Ctrl + S and then to close the worksheet using File Close command (or) Press Ctrl + W.

 

Opening an existing worksheet

 

1. Using Open dialog box

To reopen an existing worksheet, the FileOpen command (or) “Open” icon (or) Ctrl + O can be used. An Open dialog box appears as shown in Figure 9.25 that is similar to “Save As” dialog box.
