EXERCISE 3.2: Saving Your Data Model

Once the model has been saved, <CTRL + S> or File > Save will automatically save the current file and File > Save As will always bring up the Save As screen.

Find a good file location to store your model, type Publishing and click <Save>. We will be working on this publishing data model throughout the text.

Note that ER/Studio files have the .dm1 file type.

Congratulations! You have just created and saved your first data model in ER/Studio. Now let’s start filling it in with data modeling objects in the next section!
