Method Type¶

Procedure

Return Type¶

Arguments¶

Argument	Description
`sReportID`	ID of a report. Must be ID of a report. This argument can be passed as an empty string. The empty string can be written as `C_USEMAINDRREPORTID`.
`sFileName`	The name of a NEW file.

Description¶

Saves the definition of the currently loaded report to disk. This means that, for example, the connection string of a report can be changed and saved to disk, making it easier to open the report in a DataFlex Reports Studio installation at the customer location.

The sFileName MUST be a NEW file. It is not possible to overwrite an existing file. No error is given when an existing file is found.

This method cannot be used before the report OCX object is initialized. The COM object creation is performed as part of the OpenReport method if it has not been done beforehand.
