C.K.,

To be more explicit:

In the main window, click "Editors", then "Code Editor" (and *notice* the
existence of the other editors to create code for menus, popups, and
timers).  In the editor window that comes up, notice on the left top a
listbox for all controls you've created, and select the one that you want to
write code for; then in the right top listbox, click on an event you want to
have your code respond to, and a pre-built template of code will appear in
the editor, creating the event trap.  You write your code inside that
procedure.

You can also write code outside actual events, by clicking on any of the top
entries under Events which are in parenthesis [(Begin), (Intro), (General)].
And of course you could even put comments & version info in those
pseudo-event sections, too.


To run your code:  in the Editor, there's a menu choice "Run Code" (not sure
what the difference between "Run" & "Temp Run" is, I just use "Run"); and in
the main design window there's a menu choice "Run" which has a number of
choices, of which "Run Project/include" would run your code.

Closing the Editor window "saves" the code you've written and gets you back
to the main controls creation window.

And as I said, right clicking on a control you've created (in the Form
Design window) will bring up a menu with "Editor" as one choice.

Subject: IDE Possibilities?



Is it possible to use the IDE as an integrated development environment? I
mean, seriously... If so, where do I add my own code? How do I run the code
instead of just view the windows?

I know it's called "IDE," but I think right now, the way I use it, it's
basically a GUI development tool as opposed to an IDE.
