Finding (or creating) the folder where the chart file is
1)If the chart file you want to save the chart to, is in the available chart files that are displayed in the dialog above, go to step 3.

Or you can navigate to the folder you want using the left pane of the "Save Chart" dialog, for instance by clicking on the Documents folder, then selecting a subfolder in the main pane, and if necessary a subfolder of that folder, and so on until you have found the folder you want.
Any chart files in the newly selected folder will be then be displayed similar to above. You can now go to step 3.
