Are you sure that you are opening the NEW copy of the files that are updated to version 8?

I have two separate files on Legacy, let's say FamilyA.fdb and FamilyB.fdb. They are completely separate. The problem I'm having is this. When I am working on one family and want to switch over to work on the other family, I have to re-load the fdb all over again, losing any data I had entered into the first file! When I used version 7, all I had to do was click on the link in the upper left-hand corner that said "File" and there would be a list of the databases I had in the program. I would click on the name of whichever fdb I wanted to go to and it would take me there. Now, if I do that, as stated above, I have to reload the one I want to use, losing any information previously entered. I hope this is clear enough so someone can help me with this!
