  10. Save the Customers.cs form.
  11. In Solution Explorer, in the SUP101 project, right-click Customers.cs, then select View Code.
  12. Replace the code with the source code from the Customers.cs file you downloaded from the SAP Community Network (SCN) Web site, also provided below:
    Edit the bolded code lines to match the Sybase Unwired Platform Admin login, password, and host you indicated during installation.

  13. Click the Customers.cs[Design] tab to return to the Customers form design view to add event handlers to the buttons.
    1. Click the InitializeApplication button on the form.
    2. In the Properties view for the button, click the Event icon (lightning bolt).
    3. Next to Click, select InitializeApplication_Click.
    4. Repeat these steps for each button, selecting these events for each Click data binding:
      • LoadData – LoadData_Click
      • Update Customer – update_Click
  14. Save your changes.
