The application main menu includes an Exit option to leave the SkyWriteApp application. This option will close the application. When you are testing an application, you can always exit the application and return to the designer by pressing the "X", but in testing, the Exit menu option will not close the application. We'll test the Exit option by first closing the Application Designer and then running the application..
To close the Application Designer:
1. Choose File: Close.
You will be returned to the "Applications" menu in the Database Explorer.
To test exiting the application:
1. | In the Database Explorer, select the SkyWriteApp from the list and click the "Run Application" option. |
The application will launch.
2. | Select Exit: Exit Application |
The application window and R:BASE should close.
We still have more work to do, so launch R:BASE. Make sure you are in the directory where the SkyWrite sample database is located. Use the Connection history to easily connect to your sample work.
1. | From the menu bar, choose Databases: Connection history: (Your sample database) |
You will be connected to your sample database.
