WinEdt ⇒ Create a macro

[totote]

Hi. this might be a silly question but I would appreciate some help. Lets say I have a main file "mythesis.tex" and I include there several chapters. so lets say i'm writing in chapter.tex and then want to compile to see how the dvi looks like, i have to go to the mythesis.tex window and then compile from there, say with the built in macro Latex (F5). what I'd like to know is how to create a macro that even if my active window is chapter.tex i can press say F12 and mythesis.tex will be compiled. the thing is that i'm tired of moving through the windows each time i want to compile.
thanks for hour help

Create a project and declare mythesis.tex as main file ("project" menu).

Thanks as well. Latexing chapters rather than the project by mistake was bugging me chronically.
