If you did not receive any error message such as "Access denied" when
attempting to create the Cabrillo file, then the file was created
successfully.  You can find it most easily by using the Win-Test menu.

Select File | Explore | /log directory.  This will open Windows Explorer.
 Select View | Details in Windows Explorer.  Click on the column title "Date
Modified" once, then a second time, and all the files will be sorted by
date, most recent at the top.  Your .WT4 file and your .LOG (Cabrillo) file
will be listed at or near the top of the window.

Note that the file name will end with .LOG (*not* .CBR).

You can then right click on the files to copy them to any USB stick, or the
Windows desktop, or My Documents.

But there's an easier way.  Just do WRITELOG [Enter] and click the [Browse]
button at the bottom of the Window.  You can temporarily change the output
file LOCATION from C:\Program Files\Win-Test to E:\ (or whatever you see for
your USB stick) by selecting any folder in the list and clicking [OK].  The
click [OK] again, and the selected output files (.LOG, .SUM, etc.) will be
written directly to the USB stick rather than to the hard disk.
