Save your work as often as you like and you can even set your program to save your work from time to time. If you have a ton of available space on your hard drive, you can save the work in progress in two files (one is the backup and the other is the copy of the last save). After importing the file, it would also be wise to have a copy so don’t have to re-import the file if you end up messing up your work. The back-up saves you time and it would also be nice to back-up unfinished work onto a RW CD or DVD so you have a spare of the one you have on your hard disk.
