When you're saving it, the box below the file name will tell you the file typ. You might need to perform a Save As to find this out. It's a drop down box that will give the option for a type 1, type 0, and one other that may or may not include QWS's info. (QWS doesn't support Type 2 MIDI files, so you don't need to concern yourself with them)
