Overriding Search Records

You might want to reuse a component, changing only its search record.

You can accomplish this by overriding the component search record at the time that the component is invoked from a menu. To override a component search record, specify a different search record in the properties of the menu item that invokes the component. The component uses the override search record when it is invoked from that specific menu item; the search record set in the component properties remains unchanged.

By reusing components in this way, you can limit redundancy, keeping your application smaller and easier to maintain.
