Saving LAN data

You can save scanned data to a database if you need to keep the data for further reference. If you do not explicitly save the data to a new database, the data is automatically saved as the "default" database. The path for databases, should you need to transfer databases between machines, is at the following location: C:\Program Files\EMCO Network Inventory 3.0\Data\MachineData\.

Note: Whenever you scan a LAN you are automatically saving new information to whatever database you are using. This can overwrite information that you may not want to change. Refer to Archiving databases if you want to archive a database so that you can always create a new database from the archive.

To save LAN data:

1. Click on the File > Save Database As menu option.

2. Enter the name of the database in the Save Database As window and click on the button. This will create a folder of the same name in the C:\Program Files\EMCO Network Inventory 3.0\Data\MachineData\ directory.
