3.1 Overview

In this exercise, you will develop a simple application with a single graphical user interface (GUI) window. This window will contain a simple text box and a single push button.

When the application first initializes, the text box will contain the value "Begin". When a user clicks on the push button the text in the text box will change to "Hello!".

While this represents the simplest of applications, it will demonstrate the development methodology that you will use when creating PowerCOBOL applications. It will additionally illustrate key features of PowerCOBOL and the natural flow between the tools.
