Shortcut problem

[jake7363]

Hi,
I found another problem with this latest update for treeDB. When I clicked a shortcut, it would not open the file directly, but a dialog box with options. I unchecked the box in the lower left to dis-allow the option to show the box. I closed it, then tried to reopen the app; now it only opens the app as a new database.

????

Suggestions?

Thanks,
J

We need more info.
"shortcut"?
"dialog box with options"?

I think I understand what he's saying- by "shortcut" he means the desktop shortcut for TreeDBNotes- when he [double]clicks it to open TDBN, the Welcome dialog appears (as does by default). But he doesn't like that the Welcome dialog now opens up rather than the "file" just opening directly- which, by "file", I suspect he would be referring to the database- his database- which he was using previously. So iow, he used to just [double]click the desktop shortcut, and TDBN would open up to his usual database- but now, the Welcome Screen appears instead. In order to correct this, he un-checked the "Show Welcome Dialog" option & closed it out. But now the problem is that when he ran TreeDBNotes again, it opened to a new/blank database, rather than his own database- and the Welcome Screen/dialog, from which he could choose to open an already existing database, as per his request, no longer appears. . Sorry...ok:

Jake- from within that new database, you should be able to just go to the File menu > next, highlight/pause your mouse over Open > a submenu should then expand, listing your existing databases- including which ever one you were using previously. Now just go ahead & select your database. Yay!

If for some reason your database isn't listed in that sub-menu- then, rather than pausing your mouse over Open, just simply click it- now you can navigate to wherever you think that database is. . . Yay!
