Create a project in the IMTKTutorialsESA solution to contain the components of our COBOL application and the components of our service interface.

  1. From the IMTKTutorialsESA Solution in the Solution Explorer, right-click the solution name; then click Add > New Project.
  2. In the Name field, type ProgramREST.
    Note: Because you are creating the project from the IMTKTutorialsESA solution, the default settings for Project types, Templates, and Location are correct.
  3. Click OK. The ProgramREST project now appears in the Solution Explorer.
  4. Right-click the ProgramREST project; then select Add > Existing Item from the context menu.
  5. Browse to the %PUBLIC%\Documents\Micro Focus\Visual COBOL\Samples\Interface Mapping Toolkit\ServiceInterfaces\ScheduleDemo folder.
  6. From the drop-down list, select All files (*.*) to show all files listed in the directory.
  7. Select all files except the Readme XML files; then click Add.
  8. To save this project, select the ProgramREST project in the Solution Explorer; then click File > Save ProgramREST.
