Export Projects to VXZ Files
You can create a compressed file of the selected project folder, which can then be sent as an e-mail attachment, for example. If necessary, you can remove the folder of the compressed project from the project archive.
- Select Archives | Projects | Export.
- Select the projects to be compressed in a dialog box. You can sort projects by name, date, saving location or description by clicking the headers. Each project is compressed into a VXZ file of its own.
- Click OK.
- Select the folder in which you want to save the compressed files.
- Click OK.
The program compresses the selected projects and saves the VXZ files in the selected folder. The VXZ files are named according to the project ids, for example Project_1.vxz. You will be prompted: Do you want to delete these projects and project folders from the archive?
- Do either of the following:
- If you want to keep the folders of the compressed projects in the project archive, click No.
- If you want to delete the folders of the compressed projects from the project archive, click Yes.
Note
- The files that will be included in the compressed file are defined in the Pack_Control file, located either in the project folder or the Setup folder.
- You can also save a project to VXZ file when closing the project by selecting the check box Export project to VXZ file in the dialog box.
