Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

■ Prompts you for a file name and saves the current file in
  text format. Only code is saved; this command doesn't save
  the binary description of a form as text.
 
■ Tip: Use Save Text to export binary form code to text
       format.
 
■ Note: A copy of the current file is saved as a text (.TXT)
        file. This command does not rename the file in the
        project like the Save As command does.
 
■ To name and save the current file:
    1. Type a file name in the File Name text box.
                  ┌────────────────────────┐
       File Name: │ UNTITLED.TXT           │
                  └────────────────────────┘
    2. Press Enter or choose OK to save the file,
       ╔════════╗
       ║   OK   ║
       ╚════════╝
       or choose one of the following:
       ┌────────┐
       │ Cancel │  To cancel the operation
       └────────┘
       ┌────────┐
       │  Help  │  To get help
       └────────┘
       Note: If a disk file has the same name as the file
             being saved, Visual Basic prompts you to
             confirm before overwriting the file.
 
■ The Directories list box provides access to other drives
  and directories:
 
   Directories:
  ┌──────────────┐
  │ ..           ↑ • Include a drive/path designation with
  │ [-A-]        ░   the file name
  │ [-C-]        ░
  │              ↓ • Choose the appropriate drive/directory
  └──────────────┘
