What is a PNZ file?

A PNZ file is a Panorama project file. Panorama is a fast database and spreadsheet program developed by Panorama Software. PNZ files are used to open multiple database files (.PANOROIDA files) at once. This allows users to easily switch between databases and view data from multiple databases in a single window.

PNZ files do not store the actual databases themselves. Instead, they contain references to the database files. This makes PNZ files relatively small and easy to share with other users.

To open a PNZ file, you need to have Panorama installed on your computer. Once you have Panorama installed, you can open a PNZ file by double-clicking on it or by selecting it in Panorama and clicking on the "Open" button.

Here are some of the benefits of using PNZ files:

  • Easy to use: PNZ files are easy to create and manage. To create a PNZ file, simply open Panorama and add the database files that you want to include in the project. To open a PNZ file, simply double-click on it or select it in Panorama and click on the "Open" button.
  • Efficient: PNZ files can help you to save time and improve your efficiency. By opening multiple database files at once, you can easily switch between databases and view data from multiple databases in a single window. This can help you to avoid having to open and close multiple database files throughout the day.
  • Portable: PNZ files are portable, meaning that you can easily share them with other users or move them to a different computer. PNZ files do not store the actual databases themselves, so they are relatively small and easy to transfer.

Overall, PNZ files are a useful tool for anyone who uses Panorama to manage databases. They offer a number of benefits, including ease of use, efficiency, and portability.

How to create, open and edit a PNZ file?

To create a PNZ file, you need to have Panorama installed on your computer. Once you have Panorama installed, follow these steps:

  1. Open Panorama.
  2. Click on the "File" menu and select "New Project".
  3. In the "New Project" dialog box, enter a name for your project and select the location where you want to save the PNZ file.
  4. Click on the "Add Database" button and select the database files that you want to include in the project.
  5. Click on the "OK" button to create the PNZ file.

To open a PNZ file, simply double-click on it or select it in Panorama and click on the "Open" button. If you do not have Panorama installed on your computer, you can download it from the Panorama Software website. Or you can try to open it in a different program, such as a text editor (Notepad, Sublime Text). However, this may not work for all .PNZ files.

To edit a PNZ file, open it in Panorama and make the changes that you want. Once you are finished making changes, save the PNZ file.

Here are some additional tips for working with PNZ files:

  • You can add or remove database files from a PNZ file at any time. To add a database file, click on the "Add Database" button in the Panorama toolbar. To remove a database file, right-click on the database file in the Panorama project window and select "Remove from Project".
  • You can rename or move a PNZ file at any time. However, if you move a PNZ file, you will need to update the references to the database files in the PNZ file. To do this, open the PNZ file in Panorama and click on the "Update References" button in the Panorama toolbar.
  • You can share PNZ files with other users. To do this, simply copy the PNZ file to a network drive or a USB drive and send it to the other user. The other user will need to have Panorama installed on their computer in order to open the PNZ file.

What is the difference between a PNZ file and a PAN file?

The main difference between a PNZ file and a PAN file is that a PNZ file is a Panorama project file that contains references to multiple database files, while a PAN file is a Panorama database file.

PNZ files are used to open multiple database files at once. This allows users to easily switch between databases and view data from multiple databases in a single window. PNZ files do not store the actual databases themselves, so they are relatively small and easy to share with other users.

PAN files are used to store data in a single database. PAN files can be used to store a variety of data types, including text, numbers, dates, and images. PAN files can also be used to store relationships between different types of data.

Here is a table that summarizes the key differences between PNZ and PAN files:
