If you had deleted the original file and replaced it with the new one there is no way that it could have opened the old one (as it no longer existed). In fact do you actually mean that it opened the file but did not show the Accounts page where you can see all the accounts? If so then, as has been said in another thread, all you needed to do was to click File > New Accounts Page to open it. The reason it automatically opened an Accounts Page when you did File > Open is because it thought it was opening a file it had not seen before so brought up the default view. When you let it automatically open the one from the backup it thought it was re-opening the original file so restored the pages that you had previously, which was none.
