Save

Saves the design, layout, or structure of a database object.

Syntax

expression.Save [ObjectType][, ObjectName] 

with the following parameters:

ObjectType

A constant of the AcObjectType enumeration specifying the type of database object to save. Possible values are acDataAccessPage, acDefault (the active object; this is the default value), acDiagram, acForm, acFunction (a user-defined function for SQL Server), acMacro, acModule, acQuery, acReport, acServerView, acStoredProcedure, or acTable.

ObjectName

A String specifying the name of the database object to be saved.

Comments

• The Save method corresponds to the File | Save As menu option. That is, it typically saves such things as the state of an object’s design, layout, and structure, rather than the state of its data.

• If you specify an ObjectType, you must also specify an existing object name in the ObjectName argument.

• If you omit both ObjectType and ObjectName, Access saves the active object.

• If you omit ObjectType but provide an ObjectName argument, Access saves the object using ObjectName, even if this amounts to a renaming operation. In this case, if SetWarnings is True and ObjectName already exists, Access will prompt you to confirm that you want to overwrite the file.
