Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Development:
Progress Dynamics Getting Started

> ## Running the completed application

> You have completed building the application. Now you can run the main menu window from the Dynamic Launcher. Because menu Repository data is cached differently on the client from the data for application objects, the Clear repository eache toggle box on the Dynamic Launcher is not sufficient to refresh the data for your new menu window. To see your latest work, you must select the Clear data cache and Destroy ADM Super Procedures toggle boxes as well. This option clears the running procedure instances on the client where Progress Dynamics stores menu data. Menu data is stored in running instances of certain ADM super procedures. You must destroy these instances to force restarting them with the latest definitions.

> | To run your sample application from the Dynamic Launcher:

> 1. Choose Compile Dynamic Launcher from the AppBuilder main window.

> 2. Type oeMenuWin in the Dynamic Launcher.

> 3. Select the Clear data cache and Destroy ADM Super Procedures toggle boxes, then choose Run, as shown:

> Note: A message box might appear that says the ADM Super Procedures are in use and you should close certain procedures or cancel. If you receive this message, close all the Progress Dynamics tools except the AppBuilder main window. The tools are built with the ADM and might tie up a procedure. If the message appears again, you must shut down Progress Dynamics and restart it. If you do have to restart, remember to reconnect to the DynSports database.

> Your main menu window appears:

> 4. Choose OrderEntry Customers and try out the Customer Browse window.

> 5. Choose OrderEntry Orders.

> 6. Double-click an order to launch the Order Maintenance window.

> 7. Choose the Modify button on the toolbar.

> 8. Choose the Lookup button for the Customer field.

> 9. To change the Customer for the current Order, double-click a record in the browse.

> You now have a working application. In the next chapter, you will look at some of the tools that Progress Dynamics provides for administering your applications. You will also learn to customize an application by providing translations for the sample application windows.
