SaveEditor()
Summary
Saves an editor to a file.
Syntax
SaveEditor(string editor_name, string filename [, array options])
| Argument | Contents |
|---|---|
| editor_name | The name of the editor |
| filename | The path of the file in which the editor contents are saved |
| Option | Type | Contents |
|---|---|---|
| Header Data | Any | A value to store in the file header, including an array |
Notes
The options array is an optional argument.
SaveEditor() does not save the data displayed in the editor. Only the editor settings and the references to the data are saved.
If the filename is null, SaveEditor() saves the editor in the last file in which the editor was saved.
While the editor file can have any file name and extension, Maptitude editor files normally have an extension of .DVW.
Example
SaveEditor("Sales Profile", "d:\\sales\\prof95.dvw")
// HeaderData variable defined previously
SaveEditor( , "d:\\sales\\profile.dvw", {{"Header Data", HeaderData}})Error Codes

|---|---|
| Error | The editor cannot be saved in the specified file (e.g., the disk is write-protected or out of space); or filename is null and the editor has never been saved |
