Save Deformed Shape

How do you save the deformed shape of a part?

I am trying to save the deformed shape of a shell but when I follow the help file to save it (Right click results and choose the save option) it doesn't appear. Where did it go?

Solidworks Premium 2009 x64 SP2.0

Matthew you only save results, jpeg or animation files but can't save a deformed shape of the model after doing the FEA analysis.

I'm using CW 2007 so don't have idea of that option. Thanks Ameer & Lin for the info/tip

According to our VAR this is only available for the premium version of simulation. We have the basic version that comes bundled with Solidworks works premium which doesn't contain this feature. Bummer =/

Yes it is possible only for the premium version of simulation. You can choose to save the deformed shape either as a part or add it as a configuration. Pretty nice but useless for me.
