Adding Objects to a Registry Package

A RegistryPackage is an object that contains other registry objects. Typically, you use a RegistryPackage to group logically related objects. The objects can be of different types and can have different owners.

You add objects to a RegistryPackage by specifying their unique identifiers. If you try to type the unique identifiers, you are likely to make errors. Therefore, the following steps describe how to add objects by copying and pasting the identifiers.
