The File Open Dialog

A standard File Open dialog allows you to select a source file on your hard drive or network.

Steps:

1. Find the file or folder that you want to open.

2. Double-click the file or folder to open it, or select the file and click Open.

Depending on the data source you select, one of the following happen:

• You are brought to the Preview window, where you can view, select and/or load tables to use.

• You are brought to the Report Design window, where you can define the fields to use from PDF and report files.

• You are brought to the Worksheet Design window, where you can define the fields to use from non-tabular Excel worksheets.

Note

• You can bypass the File Open dialog and open a data source immediately by dragging the file from Windows Explorer to the Start or Preview window.

• Note that the delimited text importer has been updated in Monarch Complete version 2020.1. Thus, workspaces containing this new importer will be rendered unusable in older versions of the software. A version compatibility warning displays before the workspace is saved to alert you of this potential issue.
