Open Database
To open a Brother's Keeper 6 database, or to create a new Brother's Keeper 6 database, pick File, then Open database from the main screen. You may then pick the drive and folder for the database. You can also create a new folder. The Brother's Keeper data files will then be opened or created in the folder you specify. If you want separate Brother's Keeper databases (you do not want the people connected between the databases) then each database must be in a separate sub folder. See also, Open list of databases. Note, you do not need to pick Open Database unless you want to open a different database. When you start Brother's Keeper it will automatically open the database you were working on previously.
It is strongly recommended that you keep your normal BK database on the C: drive or another hard drive. You should not have your regular database on the A: drive or it may be damaged. You should keep your database on your hard drive, and then make frequent backups to the A: drive for safe keeping.
