## Working with database


This feature is available through the **Data Base** section in the **File** menu and serves to enable saving decompilation results into a separate compressed file. This can be useful for faster loading of decompilation results in the future without needing to re-decompile code.


In case you need to return to analyzing the program or share these results with a colleague, there's no need to perform decompilation again. In the case of full decompilation (with the **Fast Decompilation** [option](https://www.vb-decompiler.org/help/advanced_features.htm) disabled), this process can take longer and consume additional time. It is much more convenient to pre-save the decompiled code in the **Database**.

**VB Decompiler** uses an internal compressed database format, which allows for significant optimization of size and density of information contained within such a database. Additionally, there is compatibility with databases saved by most previous versions of VB Decompiler, allowing you to store information without risking the possibility of not being able to open such a database in the new version of the product.
