Saving data in Excel Table. Save everything

Recording tables Excel to the computer is called saving. This is the process in which we make a file from the table and make it on the local disk. Then the file with the table can be opened on the computer, transfer to the USB flash drive, send the Internet.

How to save an Excel table

one . Click on the "File" inscription in the upper left corner of the program.

If there is no such inscription, click on the Round Button with Color Squares. It is also in the upper left corner of Excel.

2. From the list, select "Save As".

3. A small window will open. Through it, you need to choose a place on the computer where you should write a table. You can do it through the left part.

Then I open the "Reports" folder.

If there is no needed folder, you can create it directly in the window. To do this, click on the "New Folder" button at the top.

Checking whether the place is chosen correctly for saving. It will be written in the top of the window.

four . Print the name for your file or leave the computer as offers. The name can be changed at the bottom, in the "File Name" line.

The window will disappear - this will mean that the file with the table was written to the specified place.

You can now close the Excel program and try to find the recorded file in the computer. To do this, open the place that you have chosen while saving. There must be a file with the specified name or standard name "Book 1".

Important! When drawing up a table, it is better to save it from time to time. To do this, use this button in the upper left corner of the program:

By clicking on it, the table will be restarted. That is, the previously recorded option will be replaced by a new one. It is necessary to accidentally not lose the data. After all, if the computer fails (hang, turning off electricity), then the likelihood of the table loss is large.

In most cases, you will probably save your books in the current file format (XLSX). But sometimes it may be necessary to save a book in another format, for example, for an earlier version of Excel, in a text file or to a PDF or XPS file. Just remember that whenever you save a book in another file format, part of its formatting, data and functions cannot be saved.
