Where is "save as" in Access 2007?

In previous versions of Access, you could use "save as" to save a database
object under a different name. I don't see that option in Access 07--is there
a way to get that option back? If not, shame on you Microsoft. For example,
when you have similar but not identical queries, it's a lot more efficient to
change the one different field or parameter in an existing query than having
to start a new query from scratch.

Thanks for any help with this,

Use the office button and select save as.


the process of saving word, excel, power-point and yes ms-access sis ALL THE
SAME.

when you hit the office button, you should see a save - as, if you don't
then perhaps your application been customized to remove that feature.

note how the save as ALSO lets you choose what version of access to save the
file in.

This is quite nice, since that's how the "other" products in office always
worked.

So,
for about a dozen years, in Excel, you could use save-as to save Excel into
"previous version of excel"

for about a dozen years, in Word, you could use save-as to save Word into
"previous versions of word"

for about a dozen years....<insert favorite office product here) ...

You get the idea..

So, ****finally***** access now also works the same as every other product
in the office suite. So, not only do you have a save-as, but you can also
choose what version to save the data in
(2000 or 2002/3 or 2007).

So, for word, excel, ms-access etc, you use the office button, and then
select save-as. If you going to use word, or excel etc then you find the
"save-as" in the same location for all of the office....

Thank you--I am new to the whole 2007 interface and so am still learning my
way around.
