Now that the rules have been discovered, you can model them in Corticon Studio.
To get started:
1. Launch Corticon Studio by selecting Start > Progress > Corticon Studio.
2. In the Workspace Launcher dialog box, retain the default location and click OK.
The Corticon Studio opens.
Note: A workspace is a Windows directory where Corticon Studio rule projects are
stored.
Set up the tutorial rule project
Corticon Studio comes with a built-in sample rule project for this tutorial. To open the sample:
- On the Welcome page, click Samples. (If you are not able to see
the Welcome page right after you launch Corticon Studio, select Help >
Welcome).

- On the Samples page, select Tutorial, and then click
Open.

- In the Import Projects window, click OK.

The sample rule project opens in Corticon Studio.

Note: The sample download provides the
vocabulary you will use to hands-on create the files and the rules for the project. The
accompanying Tutorial-Done folder contains all the files that
comprise the tutorial exercises (including a slightly modified vocabulary) so that you
can prove your work, or—if you just want to audit the tutorial—click your way through
the files.
