Starting with caArray 2.3, any *registered* caArray users may download array design files from caArray's public instance by following the steps below:  

# Login to caArray.
# Select the option of "Manage Array Designs" in the caArray Welcome Menu.
*Login Screen and Welcome Menu*
!caarray-menu.jpg|align=center,width=400px,alt="Screenshots showing the Login Screen and Welcome Menu"!
# Sort the list of the array design files alphabetically by clicking on the "Array Design Name" column heading.
# Find the file that you are interested in and click on *Download* icon to download the file. 
*Array Designs File List and Download Icon*

Presently, the search function in caArray is for experiments only. The only way to find an array design file is to follow the steps listed above.
