Importing an MTS Component into a Package

[This product will work only on Windows NT 4.0 versions and earlier. For Windows 2000 and later, see COM+ (Component Services).]

You can use the Microsoft Transaction Server Explorer to import into packages specific components that have already been registered on your computer as COM (Component Object Model) components. Importing a component does not install the interface or method information required to set interface properties or to configure access to the component from a remote client. If possible, install rather than import components.

To import a component into a package

1. In the left pane of MTS Explorer, select the computer on which you want to import the component.
2. Open the Packages Installed folder, and select the package into which you want to import the component.
3. Open the Components folder.
4. On the Action menu, click New. You can also select the Components folder and either right-click and select New and then Component from the right-click menu, or select the Create a new object button on the MTS toolbar.
5. Click the Import component(s) that are already registered button.
6. Select the components you want to import.
7. Click Finish.
