Managing Extensions

To review your object extensions in the Resource Editor, select Manage Object Extensions from the property sheet menu.

You can create basic new properties and lists using the wizards available from the property sheet menu. To perform more advanced editing of extensions, you must open the appropriate extension.

  1. Open the property sheet of the object, click the menu button, and select Manage Object Extensions.

  4. Click OK to open the chosen extension in the Resource Editor.
