xcall MIAMEX, MX_USRSAV, status, name

XMX_USRSAV (MIAMEX 110) allows you to save a memory module to a disk file.

Parameters

status  (F6)

will return the number of bytes written to disk if successful, 0 if the module was not found in memory, and a negative number to indicate an error. Currently defined error conditions are: -1 if there was a discrepancy in the number of bytes written (perhaps indicating a disk quota or limit was exceeded); -2 if the file could not be opened (perhaps indicating a privilege or write protect problem); and –3 if there was an error in processing the file specification (perhaps indicating that you are not logged into a valid directory).

name

should be set to the name and extension of the module to save (e.g. "EMAILX.SBX"). It will be saved to your current logged in directory.
