   1. Name - Enter the name used to identify the application to developers.

   2. (Optional) ID - Modify the ID of the application.

   3. Select Create Application.

   The Application home page appears with three pages: Global Page, Home, and Login Page.

4. Delete all the application pages:

   1. Select Utilities.

   2. Under Page Specific Utilities, select Cross Page Utilities.

   3. Select Delete Multiple Pages.

   4. Select all the pages and then select Delete Pages.

   APEX deletes all pages from the application.

5. Change the Application Type to Theme:

   1. Return to the application home page.

   2. Select Edit Application Definition.

   3. Under Properties, change Application Type to Theme.

   4. Select Apply Changes.

   The application is now a Theme application.
