Re: [GNC] opening my accounts after I have saved them

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 .gnucash where filename is the name you saved the
file with.

Ignore files with the format .gnucash..gnucash or 
.gnucash..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.

It should automatically open the last saved accounts file if you restart
gnucash.  If not then use File > Open and browse to the file.  Assuming
that works then close and reopen gnucash and check it re-opens the file.

Note that on a Mac you cannot double click an accounts file to open it,
that will just open the last uese accounts file.

Hi Jonnie,

Are you on a Mac, by any chance?
