Saving, a thing sometimes forgotten....

If not to YOU, but many have already lost hours of work because they forgot to save the document they were working on....

This page is a short reminder about this.

The first thing you do when you create a document for the first time, is to SAVE IT.

Saving is done by pressing CTRL-S or the FLOPPY DISK button in the Ribbon. But CTRL-S is the quickest way.

The Save As Ribbon will appear.

Encryption of files

To protect sensitive data or just to have some privacy, you need to know that you can encrypt any document you create on EXCEL, WORD, POWERPOINT.

This is done in general option in the Tool next to the save button.

Use it wisely and do not forget your password.

2 options. You can allow the reading of your document but protect it from being modified (enter a password only in Password to modify)
