# Define Project

Enter the project-related information for the project you are defining.

Project name

Enter a name for the project. All of the characters of this string are used to name files that are generated in the project directory.

Attention: For OS/390 users, be sure to limit your project names to five characters! This is necessary to comply with the 8-character limit on filenames.

Project directory

Enter a fully qualified directory name. The project directory is where you will gather files and where the generated classes are stored. If you omit the drive letter (for Windows and OS/2), the project directory will be created under the installation root for IMS Web. For example, if you install IMS Web in C:\IMSWEB, and you specify EMPLOYEE as your project directory, your project files are stored in C:\IMSWEB\EMPLOYEE. If you uninstall or reinstall IMSWEB V2 at a later date, these directories and their contents will remain unchanged.

Project description

Enter any text you like here. This field is intended for your own notes specific to the transaction.
