Component Extension

With the properties and hooks defined for the extension type Component Extension, you can include fields from the linked tables and other fields to the UserArea of the Component. Note that you can only add fields to the UserArea and not to other structures of the BOD or BDE XML. Components that have no UserArea cannot be extended.

When you add a Component Extension, you can select one of the Components that have a UserArea.
