Assuming "it" is Windows GUI and not your grandmother's knitting needles,
"save to file" writes the selected part of the GUI to a file and is not
that useful as a function. 
You should use File/Save Workspace instead, but better avoid this approach
and use save(mydata1, mydata2, file="mydata.Rdata") instead to have
reproducible results.

Best avoid using attach at all. It can be more confusing than helpful.

Use load("the file you saved above.Rdata") instead in the new R Window.
