The design rule screen is missing the "Save As" and "Load" buttons, at
least I cannot find them nor any way to save the file to a new name.
The screen shown on page 131 of the manual shows them, but danged if I
can get them to show up.

Calm down. This group is usually very fast if there are errors to report.
Usually I want to have a schematic before I discuss design rules and I
suppose many many others do it the same way.
So the problem may never have been noticed because I just checked
version 4.16r2 and that shows the same picture with no
" load / save as.." when opened from the control panel.
So this bug is confirmed and will be noticed by cadsoft you can bet.
But why didn't you try what Olin suggested, go from the board?
It seemed logical to this newbie to set up the design rules before
beginning the board layout. After completing the schematic and before
starting the board I wanted to set up my design rules. That just seemed
logical to me and since one can access the design rules from the Control
Panel, why not provide for creating a new set of them for the subsequent
board. Hence, my question.
Then Olin gets all snarly and I questioned why.
I have now set my reader to ignore him. Sorry if I offended anyone else.

John,
Not offended here at all. I'm sorry you had a negative experience on here.
In my opinion, that is not what the forums should be about.
