**Save, VIRTUAL**

{{blk2blue.jpg|blk2blue.jpg}}

The **Save **method copies the current record in the primary file and any related files. The copies may be used to detect subsequent changes to the current record or restore the current record to its previous state.

**Implementation:**

The Save method uses the BufferedPairsClass.AssignLeftToBuffer method to Save each record. See [[fieldpairsclass.htm|Field Pairs Classes]]// //for more information.
