I would suggest that all that is really needed is an explanation in the 
help file for the Import and Export functions. As this is my area of the 
help files, I will be glad to insert it.
First, though, let me make sure I have this right.

Save... Saves to disk with same name and same location
Save As... Saves to disk and allows a name and location change.
Export... Creates a copy of the document to a different location, 
leaving the original.
Import... Creates a copy of the documentfrom a different location, 
leaving the original.

If I have any of this wrong, please tell me, because I am going to start 
work on updating this section of the help files.
