I tried setting up another set of books, then when I tried to open my original set it would not allow me to open it, it kept opening the second set. I had to uninstall Gnucash then open my backup date to open the original set of books. ?????
Misunderstanding. You meant to say you didn't KNOW how to do it, and instead of asking for help, assumed that reinstalling gnucash and backup data was the solution.
a) IF you are going to have several sets of books (I do) and if it is pretty random which you would want to open (not particularly more likely the last one open) you probably should use the -nofile parameter. We can explain how you set that up. Then, when you start gnucash it won't open any but give you a list of the last four and let you choose. BUT, you could still use file=>open to open a different one not on that list.
b) If you have two (or more) but only one is much used you could simply start gnucash. It will open that set of books BUT you can use file=>open to open another instead.
