Creating a record

This tutorial module illustrates how to use the ClearQuest® CM API to create and add a record to a user database.
This module provides an example for creating a new record. In this example, the user is allowed to create a record. Initial dialogs allow the user to select the database in which to create the record and the type of record to create. After the record is created, the user is presented with the EditRecord dialog. In that dialog, the user can set mandatory or optional fields and then deliver the new record to the user database.
