Troubleshooting
I want to exit the DataViewer program. How do I do that?
The "X" in the upper right corner is a minimize button, NOT an exit button. To exit DataViewer, tap on the keyboard icon at the bottom right of the screen and then tap on "Ctl" and then "q".

I need to delete one, but not all of my Databases. How do I do that?
First, select the Database you want to delete from the Database selection menu in the upper left corner of the screen. While in the Database, tap the "Tool" menu in the bottom left of the screen and select "Delete Database." A pop-up window will appear informing you the Database will be deleted; tap "OK."

I've deleted a Database, but now I need it again. Where can I find it?
You need to re-install the Database from your original file. See the Installation Guide.
