Hi Keith,
Yeah, don't really like that methodology either. Wish MS had set up Save As to work like we (I)would expect and leave the new and old files in the project ( or include an option to do so ) and then we could take action from there.

If you want to re-include it in the project, go to Project/Show all files, right-click on the file, and choose Include in project.
