Opening an existing database

 

You can open an existing database from the "How would you like to get started?" group box.  

From here you can select a file from those listed or if the file you are looking for is not displayed, you can browse for it.  See the following image.

If browsing is required, because the database you are looking for is not displayed in the list, click on the "Browse for files..." link.  This will open a dialog that allows you to browse your directories for the database you require.  Once found, select the database title and click the "Open" button to open the database.
