Write method

The Write method saves the runtime batch object to a batch file, or a page object to a page file. When it writes a batch object, this method also writes all of the child objects, including documents, pages, and fields.

When you create a batch with an application that you developed in Datacap Studio, Datacap saves the batch as an XML file. The file is named after the last completed task in the workflow of the application. When you create a batch with an application that you developed outside of Datacap Studio, you can use the Write method to save the batch object to a file.
