Just a note here about defining properties and attributes on resources, as this may not seem as straight-forward as the rest of the tasks.
You can define or modify the properties on a resource at any time from the configuration tree (left panel) To get to the property windows for an item, simply select it from the tree and choose Edit->Properties from the menu bar; or you can right click on a node in the tree and select Properties from the popup menu. Also, you can select the node in the tree and select Props on the Configuration Toolbar in the main window.
For comprehensive information on setting the properties on a resource, refer to the related section in Tasks or to the various properties windows in Windows and Dialogs Reference.
