I am trying to save a Word document inside of my Contacts folder on Outllok 2K. I have a question regarding the use of the "Save As" option. When I hit "Save As" nothing happens, and when I hit "Save" or the save button, it puts my document in the folder with no name. Am I mistaken as to how this should be working?
 
Word documents are not Outlook objects. I think I'd find an alternative method. If you REALLY want to save it, attach it to an email, send it to yourself with the file name in the subject.

Open the contact the you want the document to be linked to. Click the Papaerclip Icon (File, Attach) and you can the attach the Word document as in an e mail

This works in all elements of Outlook

Here is the truth. I am getting ready to take the MOUS exam, and a friend said they were asked on the exam to post an office document within a Outlook folder. I follow all the steps:
New
Office Document
I select Word Document
I then opt to "Post the document in this folder"

When
I look in the folder, and Word document icon is displayed. If I repeat this process, two icons are displayed, and I am unable to differentiate between them.
