WBS Schedule Pro

Save As

Displays the Save As dialog box and allows you to confirm saving the current WBS
chart to the same file name or allows you to save the file to a different file name. To
save the file to another file name, type this new name into the File name field. To
save a WBS chart to the same file name and avoid this dialog box, use the Save
command.

File name - Type a file name for the WBS chart. You do not have to include the .wbs
extension as long as the Save as type field displays WBS Schedule.

Save as type - Choose the type of file to save. The types of files that can be saved in
WBS Schedule Pro are as follows:

WBS Schedule (*.wbs) – Saves the current project to the file name specified with a
.wbs extension. A WBS Schedule Pro file may be Standalone or Linked. If you have
created the project from scratch in WBS Schedule Pro then it saves all task data and
formatting information into a self-contained Standalone .wbs file. If you have created
the WBS Schedule Pro project from a datasource (such as a Microsoft Project plan),
saving the project stores only the formatting information into the .wbs file with a
reference to the datasource where the task data is stored (eg: the Microsoft .mpp
file). This .wbs file is then Linked to the datasource.

You do not need to specify whether to save the WBS chart Standalone or Linked, this
is determined automatically based on whether you created the WBS chart from
