File  Save / File  Save As / Save Button

This will save any changes made to a new or existing report. If an existing file was opened, then

the software will automatically save the file without prompting. If a new file was created, then

the software will display a common Windows Save dialog box that will allow the user to save the

report to the “SDSReports” folder. Once the report has been saved to the “SDSReports” folder,

the software will automatically save the file the next time the save command is chosen.

Clicking the Save As menu option will automatically bring up the Save dialog box.

File  Export

There are four sub-menu options available for the export function:

Export Report to Word

Export Report to RTF

Export Survey Data to CSV

Export to Word - All

The

Export Report to Word

menu option will export the report to a Word document format,

which will provide more detail than the standard .rtf file format, if that option is desired. When

this menu option is clicked, the software will automatically begin to export the report selected

to a word document. Once the report has been exported, the new document will be displayed.

Note – no save dialog box will be displayed to the user

. Initially, the report is saved as

“temp.doc” to the “C:\Temp” directory. The user can rename and save this report to any other

desired location.

Note – any time this menu option is used, the resulting report will be saved as

“temp.doc”, so any previous report that has not been re-saved will be lost

. The

Export Report to

RTF

menu option will export the report to a rich-text format (RTF). When this menu option is

clicked, the software will display a Windows Save dialog box that will save the .rtf file to the

“SDSReports” folder. The

Export Survey Data to CSV

menu option will export all of the survey

data (as seen on the Data tab) to a comma-separated value format file. When this menu option

is clicked, the software will display a Windows Save dialog box that will save the .csv file to the

“SDSReports” folder. The

Export to Word – All

menu option will export all of the survey’s

information to a Word file (report data, survey data, etc).

File  Print

This menu option is slightly different from the print button. There are five sub-menu options
