No 'Save as' Option in Word 2003
Hello there,
I'm using Office 2003, and in Word I find that I have no 'Save as' option under the file menu. The options are available a New Open Close Save Save as Webpage File Search .... and so on, but no 'Save as' option. Obviously, I can use the 'Save as Webpage' option to achieve the same thing, but this takes longer, since I need to not only rename the file, but also to change the file type in the drop down box. I'm sure the 'Save as' option should appear, but it simply doesn't. Can anybody explain this, and tell me how to add the 'Save as' option to my file menu? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance, Matt Keefe |

No 'Save as' Option in Word 2003
Hi Matt,
When you click on File, does the options menu appear with two downward arrows at the bottom? If so, click this to extend the menu to display all available options.

No 'Save as' Option in Word 2003
Hi Ewan,
I should have made it clear - I'm talking about the file menu in its long form, after clicking on the downward arrows. Even in this longer version, no Save As option appears for me. I wondered if a corrupted installation might be the problem, so I repaired the installation with my original Office CD, but the problem is still there.
