SKSS File Types and Naming Conventions

SKSS has three two file types. Each file type stores different information about a
specific panel or account. File types are identified by their file extension as shown in
the table below. When you are working with the files, a unique icon will display in the
upper left corner.

File Menu

The file menu contains options that apply to all Windows applications (such as Open,
Save, and Save As), as well as some options that are unique to SKSS. The chart below
describes SKSS specific options.
