## How Your Configuration Changes Are Saved

Changes are saved temporarily in memory while you are working with the notebook and permanently on disk when you close the notebook. Temporarily-saved changes can be lost if the computer shuts down before you have a chance to actually close the notebook.

Entries are saved temporarily whenever you change pages or click OK from a pop-up entry window. Entries are saved permanently when you click OK from the bottom of a page, or otherwise close the notebook.

Clicking Cancel from a pop-up entry window removes any new entries from the window and closes it. Clicking Cancel from a page removes any new entries throughout the entire notebook and closes it.

Clicking Undo from a page removes only the entries made since you last accessed that page. For example, if you go to a page, make some entries, and leave the page, the entries are saved in memory. If you return to that page, make some more entries, and click Undo, only the entries made since you returned to the page will be removed. The entries from your first access are retained in memory until you close the notebook using either Cancel (to remove them) or OK (to save them to disk).
