Saving and Renaming

When [anchor]saving [/anchor]a project, the schedule itself will be named NetPointFile.np4, a folder will be created using the description you entered, and the schedule file will be automatically placed in it. The NetPointFile.np4 file should never be renamed; instead, to rename a project, always edit the folder itself.

In addition, each time a project is saved, a file with a .nzp extension will be saved in the project folder for easy emailing or uploading. For more info, see[bookmark postid=”12932″ anchor=”email”] Sharing and Sending Projects[/bookmark].
