Lesson 1: Adding a New BizTalk Project

In this lesson, you add a new BizTalk project to your solution. You create schemas in this project that you use throughout the tutorial.

Selecting the BizTalk project template exposes the BizTalk tools, such as BizTalk Mapper, within the Visual Studio.NET development environment.

To add a new BizTalk project

  1. In Visual Studio, click File, point to New, and then click Project.

  2. In the New Project dialog box, in the Project types pane, select the BizTalk Projects folder.

  3. In the Templates pane, select Empty BizTalk Server Project.

  4. In the Name box, type SWIFTSchemas as the project name.

  5. In the Solution box, select Add to Solution. In the Location box, ensure that <drive:>\labs\SWIFTProject is selected.

  6. Click OK to create the new project.

    Visual Studio adds a new project to Solution Explorer and creates the project folder and files in the <drive:>\labs\SWIFTProject\SWIFTSchemas folder.

    Proceed to Lesson 2: Creating a Strong-Named BizTalk Assembly for the SWIFTSchemas Project.
