Preparing to Use This Tutorial

Before you start working through this tutorial, you need to:

  1. Confirm that the Progress Data Dictionary, Procedure Editor, and Application Compiler are properly installed on your system.
  2. Create a directory named mytut. The mytut directory will be your working directory for all tutorial exercises.
  3. Create a subdirectory of mytut named sports. The sports subdirectory will contain procedures that are part of the Progress demonstration database. The tutorial uses the demonstration database, named sports, as the basis for programming examples and exercises.
  4. Extract the example source programs from the prodoc.pl procedure library according to Section 2.2 below. The procedures in this book assume that your program examples are in a working directory called Progress\Wrk\prodoc\langtut.

If you run into problems with these tasks, consult the Progress Installation Notes , your operating system documentation, or your system administrator.
