About Saving and Renaming Files
You can save files, copies of files, or backups of files. The default folder to save or back up a file is determined as follows:
The My Documents folder if you have not set a working directory.
The working directory you have set for your current session.
The folder you last accessed to open, save, save a copy, or back up your file.
Saving a file on the disk creates a file with the format object_name.object_type.version_number.
Restrictions for Renaming and Saving Files
Keep in mind the following restrictions as you rename and save files:
If you retrieve a file from a directory other than the current working directory, rename, and save it, the file is saved to the original directory from where it was retrieved. It is not saved in the current working directory.
You cannot save or rename a file using the original name, even if you save the file in a different directory.
You cannot rename in simple representation.
You cannot rename a missing model.
