When necessary, you can restore a backed up engagement in SMART Practice Aids using the
File
 menu.
To restore a backed up engagement:
  1. On the
    File
     menu, click
    Restore
    .
    The Restore Engagement window appears.
  2. Use the
    Browse
     button to navigate to the folder where you stored the backup file.
  3. Select the engagement you want to restore.
  4. Click
    Open
    .
    The
    Restore Engagement
     window appears.
  5. Optionally, you can select the
    Open engagement when the restore process is complete
     check box to have the engagement automatically open when restored.
  6. Click
    Restore
    .
    If a matching engagement name already exists, you will get the following conflict message:
    "A matching engagement already exists. Restoring this engagement will overwrite the existing engagement. Please compare the engagement properties above to determine if you want to overwrite the existing engagement. Select 'Restore' to proceed and overwrite the existing engagement. Select 'Cancel' to stop restoring the engagement."
  7. Click

     to restore the engagement and overwrite the existing engagement.
    A confirmation message appears stating that the engagement was successfully restored. The message also asked if you would like to delete the backup file.
  8. Click
    Yes
     to delete the backup file or
    No
     to keep the file.
    If you selected to open the engagement when the restore process is complete, the engagement opens.
