Add a keyboard configuration file to the project that sets the typical function key operations when executing ACCEPT statements in an RM/COBOL environment.
Enterprise Developer ships with a keyboard configuration intended for modernizing RM/COBOL applications.
In Solution Explorer, right-click the project name and select
Add > Existing Item.
Browse to
%COBDIR%\etc\rm, then double-click
cobkeymp.
Note: If the file is not displayed, to the right of the
File name field, change the file type filter to display
All Files (*.*).
The file is added to the project, and is displayed in the Solution Explorer.
Tip: You can drag the file into the project from Windows Explorer, and drop it on the project name to add it directly to the project.

In Solution Explorer, right-click
cobkeymp and select
