Opening and Saving Files

Microplate Manager has two basic file types: Protocol Files and Data Files. Protocol
Files have a .kpr, .epr., or .mpr extension. Data Files have an .mpm extension.

To open an existing Protocol File or Data File, select Open... from the FILE menu,
select the name of the file you want to open, and click on the Open button.

To save a Protocol File, select Save Protocol or Save Protocol As... from the FILE
menu. To save a Data File, select Save Data/Template or Save Data/Template As...
from the FILE menu. If you are saving a new file or renaming an old file, enter the
new file name and click on the Save button.

See the individual chapters on Protocols (Chapter 4), templates (Chapter 5), and data
and reports (Chapter 6) for more information.
