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 Create a new project dialog box, select COBOL from the Language drop-down list.
4. In the center pane, select Mainframe Subsystem Application.
5. Click Next.
6. In the Name field, type ACCT.
7. In the Location field, type the name of your working directory – c:\tutorials.
8. Click Create.

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