Help on opening accounts

[Editor Linda]

Hi folks,
I have created a file, got it all balanced to my previous MS Money 
system, and I am having trouble finding it now.

I have tried the help section, and I don't actually get the same "save 
as" screen shown in the file.
Also, when I enter preferences, none of the changes actually seem to 
take hold.  I have been in and out of the file for several days now, but 
this morning I can't seem to find and open it.

This seems really tedious, and I am not sure what is going on.  I 
checked my version, it is 2.2.9, a stable version.

Any help?

Linda
