To get the view that has focus in the Workspace

1. Start Reflection, and create two or more session documents that connect to different hosts.
2. In Visual Studio, create a new Console Application project.
3. In the New Project dialog box, type Get View in Focus in the Name field.
4. Select the Create directory for solution box, click Browse to select your API projects folder (for example, C:\MyProjects), and then click OK.
5. In Solution Explorer, add the class assemblies. (For instructions, see Create an API Project.)
6. Copy the code from one of the following programs:
   • IBM
   • OpenSystems

7. In Visual Studio, paste the code to the Program.cs tab, replacing all existing code.
8. Build the application (Build > Rebuild Solution) and then run it (Debug > Start Without Debugging).
