To produce an application in Visual Prolog IDE (Integrated Development Environment) you have to use the [..\Project_Settings\Application_Expert.htm Project Settings] utility (the <span>'''Project | New'''</span> command) to create the project description file and to create other default project files. A project file <span>'''&lt;ProjectName&gt;.PRJ6'''</span> contains all information required for a project.
{{:ideNavbar/IDE Projects/Project Files as IDE Start-up Parameters}}
 
IDE also provides the environment file <span>'''&lt;ProjectName&gt;.ENV'''</span> for a project. This file stores the some information, like the set of opened windows, etc.
 
== Operations on Project Components ==
 
# Using the menu commands <span>'''File | New'''</span>, <span>'''File | Add'''</span>, and <span>'''Edit | Delete'''</span> the programmer can:
 
#* Add new components (object libraries (<span>'''.lib'''</span> files), packages, classes, interfaces, dialogs, windows, forms, menus, toolbars, icons, cursors, and bitmaps) to the project.
#* Delete existing components from the project.
#* Edit a given component. (In the Project Tree simply double-click a file or select a file and press <span>'''Enter'''</span>.)
 
# Using the [..\Project_Settings\Application_Expert.htm Project Settings] utility the programmer can change some global project settings.
# [..\Project_Window_and_Project_Tree\Project_Tree.htm In the Project window] the programmer can see the tree of files used in the project. This tree shows the dependencies and the include structure of the project.
 
== Project Files as IDE Start-up Parameters ==
 
The name of a Visual Prolog project file can be supplied to <span>'''VIP.EXE'''</span> (Integrated Development Environment executable file) at start-up as a command line parameter. It loads the given project into the opened IDE. Associating the <span>'''.PRJ6'''</span> file extension with Visual Prolog IDE enables double-clicking any <span>'''<nowiki>*.PRJ6</nowiki>'''</span> filename. It runs the IDE and loads this project into the invoked IDE.
