another note about restoring a database from a .bak file

Appending to this I want to mention that I found the "Tasks" options for...

Tasks > Restore > Database...

 
 

...by right-clicking on a database in the Object Explorer of SSMS. When I completed a restore however, the guts of the .bak file did not end up in the database I right-clicked upon. Instead, a new database was created with a name defined by what was backed up to begin with.
