<H2 ALIGN="CENTER">Step 6. Saving the Results</H2>
<P><B>Always Save Periodically</B></P>
<P>None of the work you do in managing the resource bundle is final until
you have saved the results. The first time you save the resource bundle,
you should select the 'Save Resource Bundle As...' option from the file
menu. Select a folder in which to save the file and enter in the base
class name or the base class name followed by the .properties suffix and
press save.</P>
<P>Once this has been done, it is sufficient to chose the 'Save Resource
Bundle' option from the file menu. If you are working with a versioning
tool such as Microsoft's Visual Source Safe, etc., be sure that you have
write priveleges to the entire bundle of files. Otherwise, you will recieve
warning from RBManager that it was unable to write to all of the files.</P>
<P>A way to get around this is to save the resource files individually.
In order to do this, right click on a resource file in the tree view and
select the 'Save Resource File' option. This is not recommended if you
have made changes to the entire resource bundle, but if you have only
been doing translation work for a particular file, or a few files, saving
in this manner can be useful.</P>
<P>If you ever want to change the location or base class name of the resource
bundle, you may do so by resaving with the 'Save Resource Bundle As...'
option.</P>
<P><B>Good Luck</B></P>
<P>You will find that using this tool will speed up the development process
for your international application or web service. As this is only an
alpha version release, be sure to check alphaworks frequently for updates
in functionality and bug fixes.</P>
