The Edit an Application Frame
When you create or select an application for editing, ABF displays the Edit an Application frame:
The Edit an Application frame is a catalog of frames and procedures defined for the application. The columns list the frame and procedure names, frame types, and a short remark. If this is a new application and you have not yet created frames and procedures, the list is empty, as in the figure. You can use the FRS keys mapped to Upline and Downline to scroll through this list.
To create a new frame or procedure, select the Create operation. To use the other menu operations on any component in the list, highlight the row in which the component appears, then select the menu operation.
To create or edit record types, global variables, and constants, use the Globals menu operation. These options are discussed in more detail in The Globals Submenu of the Edit an Application Frame.
