Select Target for Open
You may see the Select Target for Open dialog box if you use
the same PBL in more than one
target. When you open an object in a PBL that
is used in multiple targets, PowerBuilder needs to set global properties
for the specific target you are working on. If you open the object
from the Workspace page when the root is not set to the current
workspace, PowerBuilder asks you which target you want to open it
in. A similar dialog box displays if you select Inherit, Run/Preview,
Regenerate, Print, or Search.
