STEP THREE (To Save or Not to Save?)

It's decision time: You've created this letter and now you have to decide if this is a letter you want to save or not. If you decide that you don't want to save the letter, then take your mouse and click on the little round red button that appears in the upper-left corner of your TextEdit document (that's the Close button). Once you click the Close button, a little window will pop down with three choices on it (as shown above). If you didn't want to save this document, you'd click once on the Don't Save button on the left (don't actually click on it, I'm just telling you what to do if you didn't want to save your letter, but in this case, we do, so don't click any buttons yet). If indeed you had clicked the Don't Save button, the document would immediately closeit would not be saved anywhere, and it would just vanish as if it had never existed at all. So again, don't click the Don't Save button unless you really intend to never see that document again. Instead, click on the Cancel button in the window.
