Open a Database

To quickly open a database, follow these steps:

1. Click the Open button on the toolbar (or press Ctrl+0).

2. Select the database you want to open from the pop-up menu.

If the database you want to open does not appear in the menu, choose Project and an extended menu of databases will display. If the database still does not appear, choose Add a Database from the menu or click Project on Zoot's toolbar to open Project Manager.


Notes:

·

To cycle among open databases click the Go Back button repeatedly (or press Ctrl+F6). To see a list of open databases, click the [v] button just to the right of the Go Back button.

·

The name of the active database is always displayed in the titlebar of Zoot's main application window. The name of the active project is also shown here, and if you let the mouse pointer hover over the application titlebar for a couple of seconds Zoot will display the full file path to the active database.

·

Using Project Manager you can open and close multiple databases. Open Project Manager, select the databases you want to open or close in the window pane on the right side, then right click on the selected databases and choose a command from the pop-up menu.

·

To save and close all open databases, choose File | Save | Save and Close All from the main menu (or press Ctrl+Shift+S).
