Procedure CaseSaveAs(case)

CaseSaveAs

The procedure CaseSaveAs shows a dialog box in which the user can specify a (new) case to which the data is saved. If the case has active references to datasets that contain changed data, then these datasets are saved as well. When saving these datasets the procedure will simply overwrite the current datasets, thus with CaseSaveAs you can only change the current case and not any of the current datasets.

        case        ! (output) element parameter in AllCases

Arguments

Return Value
