It's basically the same procedure to do what you want for both Vista
and XP. The major difference is that in XP you have a New Folder
button on the Save As dialog tool bar. In Vista, just navigate to the
drive (or location) where you want to save the file, right-click in
the files area on the right and choose New | Folder. Name the new
folder, press Enter to set the name, and voila, the new folder is
available in the list on the left. (It is also automatically opened;
view the path in the address bar.)
