We'll need to know what sort of file you are creating, in which program 
and on what operating system, Christopher.
In general, LilyPond files are created directly in a text editor, or 
even better, in a special purpose application such as Frescobaldi. 
Dependng on your operating system, you can double click on the file or 
perhaps drag and drop it onto an icon, then LilyPond does the rest.

If you are exporting from another music program such as Finale or 
Sibelius, let us know and we can work through that with you.

You would very definitely find the online reference material handy, 
particularly the Introduction and Learning Manual.

Let us know how you make out!

Cheers,
Colin
