Hi Linda,
When any of these dialog windows appear, you can use any or all of the
FInder shortcuts or sequence of shortcuts to specify the folder you
want (Command-Shift-H for your home directory, Command-Shift-D for
desktop, etc.). If you want a specific sub-folder, and you're
positioned for your Documents folder, just use Command-Shift-G (for
"Go to Folder"), and type in the name of the sub-folder you want, then
press return. Your file should get saved to that folder. You can
also type in a full path to some completely different folder (like one
on an externally attached hard drive).
HTH. Cheers,
Esther

Hello folks,
Back again with something that sound simple but has me stumped. In
text edit, I have no problem going through the dialog that comes up
when I want to save a new file. However, I can't figure out how to
save a new file to an existing folder in my document folder. Is
there a way to save it to a sub-folder?
Also, if I have a file on the Desktop and the same file in my
document folder, can editing changes to the one on the desktop be
saved to the duplicate file at the same time? It appears that they
can't be saved to both files at the same time.
Last question for now. In Mail, I began a message and wanted to
save it to my draft folder while I looked up something. I tried the
tool bar save as draft button but it was dimmed. How do I do this?
Many thanks to all of you who have helped me learn the Mac.
TIA,
Linda
