Jody, Yes, that term took a while to get used to…
It is basically just your 4D database that contains all the code, forms, etc that you are putting into your component. Components are matrix databases whose files are suffixed either .4db (interpreted matrix database), .4dc (compiled matrix database) or .4dbase (package type matrix database, see .4dbase Extension). You wouldn’t go wrong if you just replaced the term Matrix Database with Component Database. It is the database that you put inside your Components folder. Foundation Shell is a Matrix Database.

The sentence then became meaningless - hate writing like that. ********************************************************************** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: https://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:[email protected] **********************************************************************
