Johnnie Use File ->Open from the menu and navigate to the location where you saved the file. Hopefully you did not save the file to a read only CD. You should have received a warning that the device could not be written to if you had attempted to do that.
Open the file <filename>.gnucash where filename is the name you saved the file with. Ignore files with the format <filename>.gnucash.<timestamp>.gnucash or <filename>.gnucash.<timestamp>.log as these are backup and logfiles, useful for rebuilding if your main file becomes corrupted. After this, on most or all operating systems GnuCash should open the file selected above. On some operating systems you cannot run GnuCash by double clicking on the data file . See the archives of this mailing list for details for specific OSes.
