Open command (File menu)

Use this command to open an existing document in a window.

Use this command to select a file to open from a dialog box. Open presents a file selection dialog box, listing the HTML files on your local disk. The dialog box allows you to specify the file you want to open. By default, I-View Pro displays all files listed in the current directory or folder with the .htm file extension. You may change directories or folders by simply clicking one of the folders listed in the right hand portion of the dialogue box. Change to the directory or folder where you have saved the file you want to open. You may have to change location to a floppy disk drive by using the Drives pull down menu. If the file you are looking for is not listed, be sure to the List of File Type to *.*.
