## File Menu

The File menu lets you perform several actions.

New--Creates a new workspace for you to define an item type.

Quick Start Wizard--Creates a framework from which you can begin designing a workflow process definition. See: Quick Start Wizard Overview.

Open...--Opens a data store by prompting you to connect to a database or a file. See: Opening and Saving Item Types.

Close Store--Closes the selected data store. This menu option is available only if the Navigator is the active window.

Save--Saves changes to the currently connected database or file. See: Opening and Saving Item Types.

Save As--Save changes to the file or database you specify with an optional effective date.

Create Shortcut--Creates a shortcut icon on your desktop of the current Oracle Workflow Builder session. Prompts for a shortcut name. The shortcut runs Oracle Workflow Builder and automatically connects to the data store that was selected at the time you created the shortcut, loading in the item types and opening the process windows that were loaded and open at the time. If the data store is a database, the shortcut prompts for the database password before starting Oracle Workflow Builder. This feature is available only when you run Oracle Workflow Builder in Microsoft Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0 or higher. Earlier versions of Microsoft Windows NT do not support the concept of shortcuts. See: Creating a Shortcut Icon for a Workflow Process.

Verify--Validates all process definitions in the current data store. Use Refresh to display the latest verification report of the process. See: To Validate a Process

Print Diagram--Prints the process diagram displayed in the active process window. See: To Print a Process.

Show/Hide Item Types...--Displays the Show Item Types window to determine which item types in the current data store to show or hide in the navigator tree.

Load Roles from Database--Loads the Oracle Workflow directory service roles from the current database store into Oracle Workflow Builder and makes them viewable from the Directory Service branch in the navigator tree as well as from any property page poplist field that references roles. This menu option is available only if the current data store is a database. See: Roles.

Exit--Exits Oracle Workflow Builder.
