[Solved] Copying a text document to a USB Drive.

[Wayne4750]

I am using version 4.1.13. On previous versions, it was very simple to copy a text document to a USB drive. I cannot seem to do it on this version as I can find no "copy" or "copy to" provision and can find no instructions on how to do it. Can someone tell me how to do it?

Copying a file is done with the operating system. On Windows 10, right click on the file icon, select Copy, navigate to o folder on the USB drive, right click and select Paste. I suppose the process is much the same on Windows 11. You can accomplish the same thing from inside OpenOffice by selecting the menu item File -> Save As.

Tried the save as and it worked. Thanks so much. I was thinking "save as" prompted you to name and save the document in Open Office and Documents only.

Beware that saving directly from AOO to a USB drive is not recommended at all. Any issue during the save operation can damage your file beyond any possible repair.
Save to the hard drive first and then copy it with your file browser. Then delete it from the HD if needed.
