Creating an EGL formGroup part

An EGL formGroup part defines a collection of text and print forms. To create an EGL formGroup part, do as follows:

  1. Identify a project or folder to contain the file. You must create a project or folder if you do not already have one.
  2. In the workbench, click File > New > Form Group.
  3. Select the project or folder that will contain the EGL file, then select a package. Since the formGroup name will be identical to the file name, choose a file name that adheres to EGL part name conventions. In the EGL Source File Name field, type the name of the EGL file, for example myFormGroup.
  4. Click the Finish button.
