Does SAVE really mean SAVE
Bruce McCormick

Does any implementation of the Save command when clicked - a form header, a table, a query, the VBA window - save the entire project, or are there instances where Save only saves the item one is working with?

Just the object you're working with unless you see that little window pop up with multiple objects.

I looked in the Customize Ribbon window and was surprised there wasn't a Save All option.

Thank you!

As a follow-up, Does Ctrl-S save everything? Often this is easier and more natural than trying to save every modified item (yes, i know, after every modification i should save...).

Looking for this clarification as i've noted when i've written code then close a form the code i wrote seems to go off into an alternate universe. I have not studied the situation more than this other than i feel pretty sure there was an instance this occurred without warning, so i thought it best to get as much clarification as possible before stepping on that mine again.

Usually, when you hit control + S if you're working on a form or a table design or something like that, it will save the object that you're working on. If you're working in the Visual Basic editor and you make a code change and you save it, it will ask you to save any objects that happen to be open if multiple objects need to be saved. But I have seen different behavior too from time to time, so it's not perfect.
