Pwr Steering fluid what kind? Does it matter?

Hi crew,
have an 89 900 non-turbo 16v that leaks a tiny bit of power steering fluid and I need to refill occassionally.
I used to get steering fluid from Texaco that had the part # in the manual: GM9985XXX or something like that. Now I can't find this fluid anywhere.
I've looked at 3 different auto parts store today and none of the people behind the counter knew which type and said they are pretty much all the same. However, my cap says to use only specified steering fluid found in manual.
Problem is that all the power steering fluid I find in the parts stores says "consult your manual" without listing any compatible numbers that are in the manual.
Was looking at a Prestone "stop sqeaks" power steering fluid compatible with GM, Ford etc... would this work in my Saab?
Fluid is running low, please help. thanks
