Question: read-save mysteries

(I think this was posted in the wrong section of mapleprimes.) Hi, I have read the manual on saving to a file many times but it never works for me. I am using Maple 10 on a Mac running MacOS 10.4.10. I have copied the example from the manual and run that and it does work so I am quite confused. Here is what I would like to do: I have a worksheet with lots of definitions,equations, lists, etc. and I would like to have these available on another worksheet. I have tried > save nx; # nx is the name of my worksheet then > read nx; Error, unable to read `nx` I have the same problem with trying to save names e.g. >save d0,d1,nxbasic; # saving 2 definitions > read nxbasic; Error, unable to read `nxbasic` The file nxbasic does exist; it is on my desktop (=current directory) and I can read it using a text editor and it has what I want. BTW, read nxbasic.txt and read "nxbasic" do not work either. I am sure I am misreading something very trivial. Help!
