Select the sample project (highlight "DXP-PRO Sample" in the Project Selection List (on the
Main Screen).
2.
Click the
Open Project
command button. This invokes the first Project Wizard dialog: System
Information, containing a summary of the system information for this project.
Once all the required information is entered in this dialog, you can proceed to the next dialog by
selecting the

button. When no additional dialogs are required this button will be inactive.
If you select a root directory (i.e. C:\) as the target directory, DXP-PRO automatically
creates a "Projects" folder for the project files. This folder is only created if you target
a root directory (as apposed to any other existing directory).
