If you are not running Business Object Designer Express from System Manager, Business Object Designer Express uses a local project as "the project." A local project is a virtual work area into which you can import business object definitions you want to work with.
Listed below is a high-level summary of how Business Object Designer Express functions operate on a local project. More detailed information about performing these tasks is provided in the topics starting with Starting Business Object Designer Express.
To edit an existing business object definition that has already been imported into your project but that is now closed, click File -> Open.
