Export of folders and multiple elements in CLC format

In the list of export formats presented is one called zip format. Choosing this format means that you wish to export the selected data element(s) or folders to a single, compressed CLC format file. This is useful in cases where you wish to exchange data between workbenches or as part of a simple backup procedure.

A zip file generated this way can be imported directly into a workbench using the Standard Import tool and leaving the import type as Automatic.

Note! When exporting multiple files, the names will be listed in the "Output file name" text field with only the first file name being visible and the rest being substituted by "...", but will appear in a tool tip if you hover the mouse over that field (figure 6.9).
