Editing Message Files¶

Creating Message Files¶

Choosing File ‣ New ‣ Message Definition (msg) from the menu will bring up a wizard where you can specify the target directory and the file name for your message definition. You can choose to create an empty MSG file or choose from the predefined templates. Once you press the Finish button, a new MSG file will be created with the requested content.
