Section 3. Spreadsheet Commands 139
SF WP, SS
Lets you store the current spreadsheet work area on a disk. To store a file,
follow these steps:
1. Insert a formatted disk. Use the ID command to initialize it.
2. Issue the SF command.
3. Type a file name when the message SAVE FILE: is displayed on the status line.
You must give each file a name. The file name must be between 2 and 16
characters long.
4. If a file by the given name already exists on the disk, REPLACE Y/N is
displayed. Type Y in response to REPLACE Y/N unless you want to keep the
old copy of the file. In this case, type N and save the current file with a different
name.
If you do not have a formatted disk, insert a new disk and issue a FORMAT
command before the SF command.
You can verify that the file is stored by issuing a CA command, which
- displays a list of all the files on the disk. Make sure the number of blocks
assigned to the file is greater than zero. If the number of blocks is zero, the file
was not saved. Press RETURN and issue the SF command again.
Example: sf
SAVE FILE: budget

Lets you switch to the file manager program. You can issue the TF (To the File

you leave the program. Use the TC command to switch back to the spreadsheet.
