Files saved in "My Documents" and is specified "save as" file - the file in My Documents is not a short cut as the file size is the same in both directories

The MyDocuments folder is the short cut, not the files it contains.

If the file was saved before you did the 'save as' then
it was saved to your My Documents folder. A
subsequent 'save as' saves another copy with the name and
location you specify. It does not, however, delete the
original saved document. This is actually a good thing
since a lot of people use old documents as templates for
new/updated ones. They simply open the old document,
save it with a new name and then make the changes they
want to make. Viola...the old document is unchanged, but
they have used it to make a new one.
