Press the "Open"-button or on the workmenu click "File|Open"
In the "Open" dialog window :
-First always at the bottom:
choose the right "type" of file
in your situation "smart chart" (others are chart,template,layout) 
-Second always at the top:
choose the right folder by using the "arrow up" button for any of the upper folders
or if the right folder is already in the display-field, then double click on it to have it
unfold and it to become the adressed "working folder".

Note: When using more then one drive make sure you are also looking in the right
folder-hyrachie, eg in the right Tree-structure of the right drive(C, D or E etc.).
