Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Development:
Programming Interfaces

> ## Understanding environment management

> When OpenEdge starts up, it loads a default environment from the registry (Windows only) or from an initialization file. This default environment is the initial current environment. The initial current environment provides resources to the default window and any windows subsequently created in that environment. At any point, you can replace the current environment by loading and making a specified environment current.
