Description

Saves a client dataset's data to an external file.

Call SaveToFile to write a client dataset's data to an external file for later use by this or other client datasets.

FileName is the name of the external file to use. If the file already exists, its current contents are overwritten. If an empty string is passed for the FileName parameter (or, in Delphi, if this parameter is omitted), the data is saved to the file specified by the FileName property.

Format indicates what format to use when saving the data: binary (dfBinary) or XML (dfXML), or UTF8-based XML (dfXMLUTF8).
