A Brief Tour of PanelBuilder 1400e

Publication 2711E-818 – January 1998

Important:

You cannot convert a keypad application to a
touch screen application, or vice-versa.
However, you can switch between 1000e, 1200e,
and 1400e application types, and you can change
the application’s network type.

Tip: You can copy display objects between applications for
different terminal types to reduce the amount of time required to
create a keypad application from an existing touch screen
application, or vice-versa. See the PanelBuilder 1400e
Configuration Software for Windows User Manual
for details.

3. Choose OK.

The Application Window opens inside the PanelBuilder 1400e
Window.

If you have existing PanelBuilder 1400e, PanelBuilder for DOS, or
PanelBuilder 1200 applications, you can open them. For information
about opening applications created in other versions of PanelBuilder,
see PanelBuilder 1400e Configuration Software for Windows User
Manual
.

To open an existing application:

1. Choose Open Application from the File menu or

from the

toolbar. Or, press

CTRL+O.

The Open dialog box appears. It lists the available applications in
the specified drive and directory. If no applications are listed, you
may need to change the drive or directory, or list another type of
application, for example, a PanelBuilder for DOS .cfg
application.
