Creating a New Object Definition

---

Use the following procedure to create a new object definition.

To create a new object definition

1. Lock the project that will contain the object you intend to add.

   For information about locking projects, see Locking Projects Directly.

2. Select the relevant object type in the Object Explorer.

   The Object List Editor opens, listing all object definitions of this object type.

3. Click in the Object List Editor window to make it active.
4. Choose Edit > New Record, or right-click and select New Record.

   A new record appears. The following figure shows a new business component record.
5. Enter property values in the new row in the Object List Editor.

   At a minimum, these consist of the object definition's Name property and Project property. Other properties may also be required, depending on the type of object definition you are creating. All required properties must be filled in order for the new object definition to be saved.

   NOTE:  Object names should not contain punctuation characters.

6. To commit your changes, click anywhere outside the new row or move outside of the row with the UP or DOWN arrow keys.

   NOTE:  New Object Wizards can also be used to create new object definitions.
