SUMMARY

When you save a file from Microsoft Project for Windows with the Save As command on the File menu, and the file already exists, an alert box "Replace Existing filename?" appears. If you choose OK and then again choose Save As from the File menu, the file is saved without the alert box. This is different from Excel and Powerpoint, but similar to Word for Windows.

Because the file has already been saved and you have not made any changes to the filename in the Save As dialog box, the Save As command works just like the Save command. Project seems to remember the last filename it was saved as and assumes you want to save the same file.
