file to the software so I may access the data?

Assuming the file is on your computer (it will be probably be called
accounts.gnucash, or something-else.gnucash, whatever the treasurer decided
to call it, then open gnucash, if it comes up with an error about not
finding a file then just accept the error and use the menu option File >
Open and browse to the .gnucash file and open it. If you wish to keep using
that file then just carry on, the next time you open gnucash it will
automatically open that file. If you wish to save it in a different
location on the PC then use File > Save As and browse to wherever you want
to save it.
