Build and Run the Project

Build the project(s) within the solution and then run the application.
  1. Click Build > Build Solution.

    The Application Output window displays information about the progress of the build result.

    The build checks for any files that have changed and does two things:

    • Compiles any files affected by the changes.
    • Relinks the built files if necessary.

    If there are any problems, they are displayed in the Error List window. Double-click an entry to jump to the particular area of the code in error.

    The following appears:

  2. Press any key to end the application.
This concludes the tutorial in which we have created a Visual COBOL project, configured it to be highly compatible with RM/COBOL source code, and then run a small RM/COBOL program.
