[File], [Create Template]
is provided to create a template from scratch. This is
a more advanced report feature that should only be used after the report
generation process is thoroughly understood. It is a much simpler task to
edit an existing template and save that template with a different file name
(see Section 16.3.1.3). Try editing one of the sample templates provided with
COMPASS before creating a new report from scratch.
16.3.1.5 [FILE], [SAVE]
This feature is represented by the toolbar icon:
[Save]
acts on the current top file in the Report Editor. If the current top file has
previously been named, the name of the file appears in the title bar of the
text window. Choosing
[Save]
in this case saves the current contents of the
window to the current file name without further prompts. Files that have not
previously been saved display
<Untitled>
in their window caption. Saving these
files generates a prompt for the entry of the path and file name of the file to save.
By default, the file path in the
[Options]
,
[Path]
preference determines the file
path (see Section 16.3.4.4). If you wish to save the file in another location, do so
realizing that the
COMPASS
Report Editor
will no longer know the location of the
file unless the default path is also changed to reflect the new location.
16.3.1.6 [FILE], [SAVE AS]
[Save As]
is used to save the current top file with a different name, essentially
making a copy of the file. The option always displays a file selection box allowing
the entry of a new file name and follows the same procedure as the
[Save]
option
when an untitled file is saved (see Section 16.3.1.5).
16.3.1.7 [FILE], [SAVE ALL]
Unlike the other save options,
[Save All]
acts on all documents open in the
Report Editor
. It is the equivalent to selecting each file and choosing
[File]
,
[Save]
(see Section 16.3.1.5). Untitled files will still require the input of a new file
name. This is a shortcut save option that can be used when multiple files have
been modified and you wish to save the changes to all of them.
16.3.1.8 [FILE], [CLOSE]
[Close]
has the same function as pressing the close
<X>
in the Windows control
box of any open document. It closes the current file, unloading the contents
from memory. If changes have been made to the document since the previous
save, a prompt to save the file occurs. Choosing
<Yes>
saves the file applying
the rules of the
[File]
,
[Save]
option (see Section 16.3.1.5). Selecting
<No>
closes the file ignoring any changes that may have occurred.
16.3.1.9 [FILE], [CLOSE ALL]
[Close All]
is a short cut to selecting every file currently open in the
Report
Editor
then choosing
[File]
,
[Close]
(see Section 16.3.1.8). This is a convenient
way to close several open files. If changes have occurred there is still a prompt
