Create a project

You create a project that comprises all the parts of your application, for example the COBOL source and BMS files. You build the demonstration application in Enterprise Developer, and deploy and run it on an enterprise server region.

  1. Start Enterprise Developer. If you need instructions, see To start Enterprise Developer.
  2. In Visual Studio, click File > New > Project.
  3. In the New Project dialog box, expand Installed > COBOL.
  4. Click Enterprise Server, and then click Native.
  5. In the center pane, select Mainframe Subsystem Application.
  6. In the Name field, type ACCT.
  7. In the Location field, type the name of your working directory – c:\tutorials.
  8. Click OK.

    This creates a subdirectory, ACCT, under your working directory. This is your project directory.
