* Opening more than 1 project

[Robert129]

I m quite sure that I read in a recent posting that it is possible to open 2 projects at the same time. When I have 1 Project open and try to open another the 1st one shuts down just leaving the 2nd one open.

Am I imagining what I think I read or if there is a setting that allows this where is it please?

I have been searching the FAQ's and Forums all morning and cannot find anything on this. I am sure it will be there somewhere but it is eluding me at the moment.

Robert,

I believe you can open two occurrences of Family Historian and have a different project open in each one.

Find the project files in My Documents\Family Historian Projects\<ProjectName>\<ProjectName>.fh_prog. Double-clicking (or right-clicking and selecting Open) on that file will open that project file in a new instance of FH.

To open FH I double click the desktop icon, and choose the project from the project window. When I want another project open I just repeat that. I've often had two projects open at the same time and don't doubt I could have more if needed.
