**This template (and its associated code templates) has been deprecated, and is now replaced by the [[tplcontrolrtf.htm|RTF Text Control]] template.**

The SaveRTFFile code template is used to save rich text data to a file. This template calls the SaveFile method. This method takes one parameter, the filename. The filename may be literal or variable. If a filename variable is used, but it contains no value at file save time or no filename parameter is specified, the Save As file dialog is opened.

** Prototype:**

**SaveFile( **//FileName //**)**

**Example method calls:**

**oRTF_RTFTextBox.SaveFile( loc:Filename )**

**oRTF_RTFTextBox.SaveFile( '0101SS.RTF' )**

**Template Prompts:**

**Associated RTF control**

Select the RTF control from the drop-down list. All controls on the Window are included in the list. This field in required.

**Filename or variable (prefixed with !)**

Specify the file to save the rich text data to. A string or variable may be used. To use a variable, precede it with an exclamation point (!). If left blank, the Save As file dialog is opened.
