How To Save a File Into a Different File Format

Certain programs installed on our computer provide us with the ability to save our files into different formats. This can be extremely useful if we find ourselves swapping files with others who have similar but not identical word processing and spread sheet programs as us. So I thought that I would compile a technical brief to show you how to use the Save as function that is built into your Windows programs.

For Windows XP

  1. For demonstration purposes, I will have you open up the built in Word Pad.
  2. Begin by first clicking on the Start Button.
  3. Then move your mouse over the All Programs icon to display all Start Menu folders.
  4. If your Start Menu is set to the Classic View, move your mouse over the Programs folder instead.
  5. Now, move your mouse over the Accessories menu folder until it expands.
  6. Now Click on the WordPad icon to launch the WordPad writing program.
  7. Type a quick line or two of whatever content you choose.
  8. Then click on the word File, which is contained in your top tool bar area.

  10. Now locate the Save as type: area located at the bottom of the screen.
  11. Then click on the menu arrow to choose a different file type.
  12. Depending on your operating system you will see a menu of choices.
  13. These include: Word for Windows 6.0, Rich Text Format (RTF), Text Document etc.
  14. Simply choose the applicable format that you want to save your file into.
  15. And then assign a name to your file within the File name area of the screen.
  16. Now click on the Save button to save your file into your selected format.

For Windows 98 And Windows Millennium

Certain programs such as Word and Excel give us the ability to save our files into many different formats that can be opened and shared with others using Word Perfect and the Lotus Spreadsheet program etc.

Spyware And Adware Removal

Spyware and Adware are two catchall names for a wide variety of Internet parasites. These parasites go around looking for unsuspecting computers—just like yours—to call home. Once they’ve found a cozy spot to hide, they set about doing all kinds of nasty things to your system—from bombarding you with pop-ups, to installing more parasites, or finding and distributing your personal information. These parasites have the ability to track your browsing habits and let companies know what your interests are. They can find and steal information like bank account numbers and passwords. And hackers can use these programs to access your computer and do anything they wish—even steal your identity. You can perform a Free Spyware Scan on your system right now by visiting any one of the below Anti-Spyware Program Websites!
