Thank you for your attention. Let me tell my opinion. User generate temporary document from CRM in odt format, i.e. he already save file. But we need store some files in MS format. I understand, that is not best way use in LibreOffice MS format for documents, but we should swap documents with other clients who need only MS format. In this moment, very useful if I do "Save As" with default format document. Because users often do not pay attention to what format the document is saved.
Thank for your fast response and LibreOffice. Good luck, Dean.

I think I can see what the original questioner is asking. The relevant settings (at Tools | Options... | Load/Save | General | Default file format and ODF settings | Always save as) are of course respected when saving a file for the first time. Although this is necessarily in effect a Save As..., users will generally use Save and think of this as a Save operation, not a Save As... . The situation in which they expect to use Save As... is when saving a new copy of an existing file, quite possibly with the precise purpose of selecting a different file format. Here the default format in the Save As dialogue appears to be the existing file format, not that set in Options. The questioner wants the Options selection to be the default here too. Perhaps he receives .odt and .ods files from others and uses Save As... to save copies in .doc and .xls formats. I make no comment on the desirability of any change. But I do suggest that using Microsoft Office file formats as standard is not the best way to use LibreOffice. If you keep ODF as the default and save copies in foreign formats only when necessary, you preserve more of LibreOffice's functionality.
