To display the exported node after exporting, select the Open on Export check box.
Click OK. The Save As dialog box opens.
The exported file is saved to your default location for exported files, you can choose a different location if necessary.

NOTE
The node is exported as a series of web pages that are stored in your 'My Documents' folder. The 'home' page has the same name as the exported node (for example, adapting to climate change.htm). You can open this file to access the 'mini website'.
If you want to move the web pages, make sure you copy all the .HTM files to the new location.
If you export a parent node with node aggregation turned on, the exported node includes content coded at the parent and content coded at all of the child nodes.

1 Displays the node name
2 Click a tab to content of a selected type (text, video, audio, pictures or datasets)
3 The overview section describes the type of node
4 The content section displays the source references that have been coded at the node. Click View Details to see the content.
NOTE You may notice a security message a the top of the window. If you want to play video or audio material, you need to click the message and allow blocked content to be displayed.
