Saving Word Docs

This may be a dumb question, but when I try to save a document, either in "save" or "save as" the dialogue box does not offer me the chance to follow any file paths and save it in the folders I want to - it only offers one folder option "documents". How can I change this?

You're a victim of Apple's infamous unnamed "guess what this is for" button
- the chiclet with the triangle immediately to the right of the Save As:
file name field... Click it to expand the Save As dialog window.

I have the save problem ... but I don't see a "chicklet" that solves it. There is an up/down arrow, but that only expands to show a few locations like desktop, documents, and recent places. I would like to "browse" and follow the directory structure to a different folder. How do I do that?

Reread the reply - You're one "row" too low. The top-most control in the
Save As dialog is the Save As: field (where you type the file name) & the
button referred to is to the *right* of it, not *below* it. You're opening
the Where: list.

Good Luck |:>)
