Saving data – PB Docs 2018

To save the data in an external file

1. Select File>Save Rows As from the menu bar.

   The Save Rows As dialog box displays.

2. Choose a format for the file.

   You can select from several formats, including Powersoft
   report (PSR), XML, PDF, and HTML.

   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) will also be saved in the
   file.

   For more information, see Saving data in an
   external file.

   For TEXT, CSV, SQL, HTML, and DIF formats, select an
   encoding for the file.

   You can select ANSI/DBCS, Unicode LE (Little-Endian),
   Unicode BE (Big-Endian), or UTF8.

3. Name the file and save it.

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