Verifying the Install

The process described below does a direct, default migration of a small project (comprised of two VBPs); it can also be used to verify your installation.

When you load gmStudio for the first time, you will see the Main Form. Normally the application reloads your the migration project from your last session, but if this is your first session, the Main Form will be blank.

You can do a direct migration of a small project in two steps:

  1. Select the VB6 projects to migrate:

        a) Click [File/New Migration] from the main menu. This will open the [Migration Project Setup] form. 

        b) Enter a name for your migration project; the default is "Migration1".

        c) Use the [Select Migration Units] controls to find and select VBPs.

        d) Click [Add] to add VBPs to the migration project
        e) Click [Save & Exit] to return to the Main Form.
