Discover the Word 2007 Save and Save As features! What are the differences between them?

The first time you save a document, whether you click on Office Button - Save OR Office Button - Save As, you will bring to a Save As dialog box.

From this dialog box, you have to specify where you want to save it - that is, the disk drive and the folder or subfolder in which you want it saved as well as the file name.
