    Thanks Chuck, Mike and Marc,

    I was just looking for general information, not a step by step. I see
    that it is done exactly as I suspected it would be. I'll play around
    with it. Sorry for the basic question, it is just that everything
    looks quite "foreign" in Eclipse at the moment, but there are enough
    familiar elements that I wasn't sure if I should just be double
    clicking on something and it would all be taken care of ;-)

    No more questions until everyone is caught up, I promise.
    (unless, of course, that means no more questions, ever!)

    David
