Charles,
point 8 below refers to reading swat outputs such as rch, sub, hru from your txtinout folder based on the corresponding file.cio (such as # of years of simulation, daily/monthly/annual, NYSKIP etc). Currently you need to run the model through the swateditor or arcswat interface to activate the read results menu, however, if you ran the model outside the interface, if you want to read the results, you can open the project mdb file and edit the master progress table like mentioned in point 8 to activate the read results menu.
Hope this is clear.
