Introducing OpenEdge Projects : Reference : Progress OpenEdge project properties pages : Configuration Variables properties page
 
Configuration Variables properties page
The Configuration Variables properties page allows you to view and define custom configuration variables, to make a project retain its settings when imported into another workspace, and to save settings in a named profile.
To access the Configuration Variables properties page, right-click an OpenEdge project name in the Project Explorer view and choose Properties from the context menu. Expand the Progress OpenEdge node in the tree view, and then click the Configuration Variables node.
The following controls are available:
{APP}

Note: This is a predefined variable and cannot be deleted.
{DB}
An optional variable (only valid in project properties pages) that represents the root directory for your database, and is used in path statements. Enter the appropriate path.
Note: This is a predefined variable and cannot be deleted.

Edit

Note: You cannot delete the predefined variables: { APP} and {DB}.
