Bank Genie 5 Testing

[AnthonyM]

Hope that it's OK posting this query here !

I've tried on a number of occasions to open a database from outside the normal Bank Genie file area. The file will open OK but when I re-open the program it always reverts to the original database. My current setup with Bank Genie 4 uses a file in this way without any problem. Am I missing something or is there an error in one of the modules.
