  • 1.  Save query results as .qry

    Posted 10-14-2025 08:13

    Hi

    I'm trying to save the results of a query as a .qry/.tab set, which I have done plenty of times in the past so that opening the .tab runs the query.
    Not sure if I'm having a mental blank, but the "save copy as... .qry" option doesn't seem to be there in v2023.1
    "Save copy as" only lets me save as a new, independent table.

    Anyone know where I can find "save as query" now? 
    I don't want to have to run the query template each time as it's for other users to open.

    Many thanks

    Hey Caroline

    I had to hunt down the control, too.

    You can find it on the Table tab in the Save dropdown

    Cheers
    Peter

    Aha! Thanks so much Peter. 

    That was greyed out just now when I'd run a query, so I didn't even see the option to start with.

    Thanks a million.

    Would be handy to have on the right-click in the Queries list I think?

    Cheers muchly :)

    I have posted a suggestion to give the >Save Query it's own control. There is plenty of room since they separated out the >Save Table As control. Same issue really.

    Vote here Make >Save Query As button an individual button | Precisely Ideas
