Difference Between Save and Save As

INTRODUCTION
It is very important that you have a very strong understanding of how to create, rename, move and delete files BEFORE you take the Dreamweaver 1 class. It has been a very common occurance in the Dreamweaver 1 course for the instructor to have to take an inappropriate amount of time to help students with these skills that are pre-requisites. This causes the other students to lose the instruction time in the topics they paid for. The following test will help you identify whether you need further training in File Management before you take the Dreamweaver class.
