Best Answer

The editing command "Save as" is used to save a current named file under a different name, e.g. to make a copy or backup file, or to leave the previous form of the file unchanged while still keeping the current changes for access (useful if you have overwritten information and cannot undo the recent changes).

Usually a Save As command for a new or unnamed file will do the same thing as simply Save.
