Syntax

SapObject.SapModel.File.Save

VB6 Procedure

Function FileSave(Optional ByVal FileName As String = "") As Long

Parameters

FileName

The full path to which the model file is saved.

Remarks

If a file name is specified, it should have an .sdb extension. If no file name is specified, the file is saved using its current name.

If there is no current name for the file (the file has not been saved previously) and this function is called with no file name specified, an error will be returned.

This function returns zero if the file is successfully saved and nonzero if it is not saved.

VBA Example

Sub SaveSDB()
   'dimension variables
      Dim SapObject As Sap2000.SapObject
      Dim SapModel As cSapModel
      Dim FileName as String
      Dim ret as Long

   'create Sap2000 object
      Set SapObject = New SAP2000.SapObject

   'start Sap2000 application
      SapObject.ApplicationStart

   'create SapModel object
      Set SapModel = SapObject.SapModel

   'initialize model
      ret = SapModel.InitializeNewModel

   'start a new template model
      ret = SapModel.File.New2DFrame(PortalFrame, 3, 124, 3, 200)

   'save SDB file
      ret=SapModel.File.Save("C:\SapAPI\x.sdb")

   'close Sap2000
      SapObject.ApplicationExit False
      Set SapModel = Nothing
      Set SapObject = Nothing
End Sub
