Auto Save Model

Form: Model Auto Save Options

Use the Options menu > Auto Save Model command to specify that the model file be saved at a specified interval.

  1. Click the Options menu > Auto Save Model command to display the Model Auto Save Options form.

  2. Check the Auto Save Model File at Specified Intervals check box and enter a value in the  Interval in Minutes edit box. The program will automatically save the .EDB file at the frequency specified in the edit box.

Note that saving a model using a different name also can be helpful from time to time so that data can be preserved. For example, to save analysis results and make changes to the model, (a) run the analysis, (b) use the File menu > Save As command to save the file with a new name, and (c) then make changes to the file with the new name. The original file retains the original model and the associated results.
