Saving a filter

After you have created a filter you can save it for use on future reports or documents.

To save a filter

After creating your filter, click Save As. The Save As dialog box opens.
Browse to the folder in which you want to save the filter.

If you want to save the Filter in a new folder, click New folder. The New Folder dialog box opens. Create a new folder as described in Creating a folder.

In the Name text box, type the name of the filter.
In the Description text box, type a short description for the filter.
Click OK. The filter is saved.

Note: If you attempt to save a filter with the same name and location as an existing filter, a message states that you are attempting to overwrite an existing object. Click OK, then give the filter a new name or location.
