Open the File menu choice. Select Project and New project (Later you will use your previous projects).
What is a project? The IDE employs a "Project" file for two purposes.
| • | The project location determines where all saved files are placed (to place files elsewhere use the save as dialogue) and where GAMS looks for files when executing. |
| • | The project saves file names and program options associated with the effort in a file called projectname.gpr. |
It is a good idea to define a new project every time you wish to change the file storage directory.
