How to access File Backup created from another computer

I need a solution

Hi,

I have two computers, each with their own version of Symantec System Recovery 2011.

Each computer creates 2 backups: 1) a full image backup 2) a file backup of certain critical document containing directoris

The idea here of course is that if it's not a total sytem failure and there's just a problem with some of the documents, then the file backup can be used.

This may seem like a very simple question, but what I need to know is this:

How can I view and restore files created by Computer 1 from the SSR2011 software on Computer 2?

To clarify, let's say Computer 1 has the File and Folder backup of a folder "Data". On our NAS, the backup is created but of course it's the symantec propritary file thing "fbffiles". Let's say Computer 1 completely breaks down, but I don't want to restore an image of Computer 1 to a new computer, I just want to access the folder "Data" from Computer 2. I go to SSR2011 on Computer 2, but when I click on "Recover Files" the only files I see is those backed up from Computer 2 (which are also stored on the NAS under a different directory), nothing from Computer 1. So how do I recover files from Computer 1 to Computer 2?

Thank you!
