You do not have to create a new project every time ODS is used.
ODS stores project files that you can open at any time.
Use this procedure to open an existing project:
1. Press [
F2
] and pull down the F2-Project menu.
2. Select the
Open
option.
ODS displays the message
Open project
and a directory of
projects.
3. Select the project to be opened and press
[
ENTER
]
. If you want to
cancel, press
[
ESC
].
ODS clears the screen and displays the top-level menu. The
name of the most recently opened project appears on the status
line as the active project. This verifies that the project is open
and is active.
You are now ready to select an application for the project.
