Creating Screens in LightSwitch
For the latest documentation on Visual Studio 2017, see Visual Studio 2017 Documentation.
Screens in LightSwitch are used to display, enter, or update data that is stored in a database or other data source. In an earlier lesson you learned how to create a common set of screens for the Contacts entity. In this set of lessons you’ll learn how to modify an existing screen, create new screens, and customize their appearance.

These lessons build upon the My First Application project that you last modified in the Defining Relationships lesson. If your application isn't already open in Visual Studio, on the menu bar, choose File, Open Project to open it. |
