• This function is only applicable if the project option Data_Management_style is set to Single_Data_Manager_file.

• If via this procedure the user creates a new case (i.e. a new case node in the data management tree), then this case does not yet contain any data. The case will only contain data after you explicitly save data to the case.

• If the option Data_Management_style is set to disk_files_and_folders, please use the function CaseDialogSelectForLoad or CaseDialogSelectForSave instead.
