Well, you can File -> New File to start over from the new file
hierarchy druid.  But if you like your existing account hierarchy
you can:

  touch /path/to/new/file

and then

  File -> Export -> Export Accounts
   /path/to/new/file

And you'll have a new data file with just your accounts.  Note that
you'll lose ALL other information, including all Business information.
