Double Checking Gotos Using Relations

Click once on the Start Module Icon, and you will notice that a link has been created between the Start Module and the Main Menu Module.

The line between the Start module and the Main Menu module shows that there is a Goto from the Start Module to the Main Menu. Anytime you set up a Goto from one module to another, a line will appear between them. This is known as a Relations line. You can tell the direction of the Goto by looking at the direction of the arrow on the Relations line. It will point from the Module the Goto is going from to the Module the Goto is going to.

While you are developing your application, you can double check your Gotos from the Call Flow View simply by looking at the Relations lines. If you have forgotten to create a Goto between two Modules you will be able to tell right away, because there will not be a Relations line.

If you can�t see the blue-green line linking the Start Icon to the Main Menu icon, go to View > Designer Properties and click on the "Relation" tab in the box that pops up. These are the Relations controls. Make sure "Show all relations" is selected and click "OK". If you like, you can also change the color of your Relations lines.

If you still don�t see the Relations line, double click on the Start Module and make sure you created your Goto properly.
