When I first extracted MLO from the zip and ran the exe for the first
time, I was asked if I would like one of several different types of
sample data with a certain template. However, after I deleted all
files in the directory and re-extracted, I'm not asked this question
and MLO assumes that I want to use the previous installs selection and
no longer gives me an option to select a different approach.

How do I try a different set of sample data from the one I selected
for the first time?

Thanks.
Dave

Does "File: New" do what you are looking for?

If you save, it uses that file name by default but you can open other files instead.

Thank you for your reply. I initially did not realize how this
worked, somehow I thought it was the same data presented with
different templates and didn't realize the actual data was different
for different samples. The File New does bring in the different
sample data - this was not clear to me. Then I had to realize that I
had to save the changes and do a File / Open not a File New to return
to my data. Not bad, once I know what to do.

Thank you for your help - I learned a few things examining your other
posts.
