I am new to Excel 2007.
I am saving a new Excel file and I want to give it a similar name to an
existing text file so that I know by the filename that the two files are
related to the same project.
However, when I "Save As" the Excel file in the selected directory, the only
other files I see in that directory are the other Excel files. I don't see
any of the other files that I know are in there (word, powerpoint, pdf, etc.).
In prior versions of Excel, I have been able to see all of the files in a
destination directory....is that still possible with the 2007 version of
Office? If so, how do I do that?

Hi,
I see what you mean, you can select Text Files (*.txt) but there is no All
Files option and *.* does not refresh the list.
If this is not a but it is an oversight.

Hi to you too....thanks for the reply. It didn't solve the problem but at
least I know I'm not losing my mind.
Thanks

Hi,
This isn't much of a solution but you can do a File, Open command and in
there you can pick *.* and preview the files of all types.
Then switch back to Save As and proceed based on what you discovered in File
Open.
