# Bundles and Procedures
AWIPS contains two methods for saving and loading data resources: **Bundles** are a simple way to save loaded resources to access in future CAVE sessions. **Procedures** are similar to Bundles, but can be thought of as *groups of bundles* and allows the user to manage saved resources with more control.
# Displays and Procedures
AWIPS contains two methods for saving and loading data resources: **Displays** are a simple way to save loaded resources into a bundle file to access in future CAVE sessions. **Procedures** are similar to Displays, but can be thought of as *groups of displays* and allows the user to manage saved resources with more control.

### **File > Load Display**
Load a previously-saved bundle from within the AWIPS system. The Open Bundle dialog allows you to select your own saved bundles as well as those saved by other users.
Load a previously-saved display from within the AWIPS system. The pop-up dialog allows you to select your own saved displays as well as those saved by other users.
Each selected bundle will load its contents to new tabs which are named after the bundle file name (e.g. NAM_ThetaE).
When loading a display, all existing tabs will be closed and replaced with the contents from the saved display.

Most saved bundles will consist of a single Map Editor (tab), but with multiple tabs saved each will open again in its own Map Editor.
