Save

To save your currently opened song book to a data file simply click Save on the application menu.  If your song book had not been saved before, you will see the standard windows save dialog which will prompt you for a file name and location.

Save As

If you would like to save the opened song book with a different file name, just click Save As on the application menu.  You will always be prompted for a file name and location.  This is useful if you are making changes to an existing song book but do not want to lose the content of the original song book.

 

Notes

You will see a "PLEASE WAIT" message in the status bar until the file is saved.
Depending on the size of your file it can take from 1-2 seconds to 1-2 minutes to save your song book.  PLEASE be patient if your song book has a very large number of songs!
