   I'd like to archive my online WordPress site and run it on a local installation.

   Toward that end, I installed WordPress with XAMPP and then imported the database from my online site.

   However, after importing the database, I can't even get to the Admin screen. The site keeps trying to get to the Web.

   I can access the database and all its fields via phpmyadmin. Are there some edits I can make to the database that will let me run the site locally?

   Thanks.

   Sounds like you didn't change the site URL settings.
