Chapter 16: Managing the Database

Saving data

You can save the displayed data in an external file using one of the formats supported by PocketBuilder.

To save the data in an external file:

Select Rows>Save Rows As from the menu bar.

The Save Rows As dialog box displays.
Choose a format for the file.

If you want the column headers saved in the file, select a file format that includes headers, such as Excel With Headers. When you select a “with headers” format, the names of the database columns (not the column labels) are also saved in the file.

For more information, see “Saving data in an external file”.
Name the file and save it.

PocketBuilder saves all displayed rows in the file; all columns in the displayed rows are saved. Filtered rows are not saved.
