There are several ways to open a HEC-DSS file from HEC-DSSVue. One way is to type in the location and filename of the HEC-DSS file in the File Name box of the HEC-DSSVue main window. After entering the correct information, press ENTER. The Pathname Table displays the pathnames of the selected HEC-DSS file, and the HEC-DSS File Information box displays statistics about the HEC-DSS file.

 Alternatively, select Open from the File menu or click Open File from the Toolbar. Either method opens the Open HEC-DSS File browser.
