what is an object groups?

Answer Posted / shumyla aziz

An object group is a container for a group of objects. You
define an object group when you want to package related
objects so you can copy or subclass them in another module.
Object groups provide a way to bundle objects into higher-
level building blocks that can be used in other parts of an
application and in subsequent development projects.
For example, you might build an appointment scheduler in a
form and then decide to make it available from other forms
in your applications. The scheduler would probably be built
from several types of objects, including a window and
canvas, blocks, and items that display dates and
appointments, and triggers that contain the logic for
scheduling and other functionality. If you packaged these
objects into an object group, you could then copy them to
any number of other forms in one simple operation.

You can create object groups in form and menu modules. Once
you create an object group, you can add and remove objects
to it as desired.
