Saving a File

You can save files (setups, states, traces, limits, corrections,

measurement results, or screens) to a floppy disk (A:\), or the internal

drive (C:\). In this example you will save a trace to the internal C:

drive.

NOTE Trace files are not bitmap files. Files saved as Trace cannot be imported

into other applications or converted. If you require the use of other

applications, for example Microsoft® Word or Microsoft® Excel, be sure

to save your files as .gif or .wmf formats using Screen for your file Type.
