From the Composer menu when you select File | Save As, you will be able to save your newly created file to any folder you have created for this purpose or in our case on your floppy disk.

You will see the "Save As" dialog box which will prompt you for file name, location, and extension. Follow the instructions carefully
The Windows file management dialog box is a very familiar window to computer users. There are always three questions that need to be addressed in this box:
  1. Save in:
    Where do you want to put your file?
    Use the black triangle to the right of the "Save in" box to locate your 3 1/2 Floppy (A:) drive or a folder you have created.
  2. File name:
    What do you want to call your file?
    The home page of your site should normally be called index. You will type the word index into the "File Name" box where you currently see the word schedule above. Index is used because most servers use index.html as the default page. In other words, when you type in the address http://www.cnn.com you actually open the file http://www.cnn.com/index.html, which is the default page.
  3. Save as type:
    What type file do you want to save your file as?
    Most Web pages use only three types of formats: HTML for text, and GIF and JPG for images. Normally, Windows senses the type of file you are saving and defaults to the proper extension, in this case HTML.
