By default, Eclipse is set to build projects automatically (see Project menu).

Right-click your project in the COBOL Explorer view and select Run As > Run Configurations.
The Run Configurations dialog box appears.
Double-click COBOL Application.
Default launch configuration details for your project are displayed.
Click Run.

When you have finished viewing the demonstration, click the Close button in the top right-hand corner.
