Cannot open Sage - I did not run Year End Wizard / close year AND I clicked on last open period in Change period window

Did I lock down the data set?  Was trying to trigger launch of End of Year Wizard, it did not launch and I closed program because each time I open program it would prompt to run End of Year Wizard.

This is only site I use Peachtree at - all other sites I use Quickbooks. 

Will I be able to open the software again and close down the previous year?

    Thank you for following up.  Issue is resolved; our IT person reset db on server.  I had crashed it.  This is what happened:  I did not find the End of Year Wizard under Reports.  I knew opportunities to launch it popped up when I opened the software but I had closed and opened software a number of times in proofing balances, etc. and knew it could be launched from within the software, but I did not find it under Reports.  It was late and I was tired.  So I went to the Change Period section of the software, thinking that if I clicked on the last open period, the error trapping in the software would pop up an error message stating "You must close down a year before proceeding" and give me a link to the End of Year Wizard.

    Instead, nothing happened and I decided I was going to have to close down the software and reopen it again, to be presented with the "You are at the end of a Fiscal Year, do you want to run the End of Year Wizard?"  prompt.   Only the database would not launch again for me.  Since I crashed it, trying to close down my last open period.

    All is well now though.  Year has been closed, new period opened.
