Components are programming objects that support properties, events and methods. LANSA components are stored in the LANSA Repository. With components, you create event-driven applications.
Visual LANSA has many user definable 4.2 Component Types. The most common component is a Form which corresponds to a window of an application. Reusable Part parts contain controls and code which can be reused in forms (or other reusable parts).
