The Contact group window
contains the components of
the Contact record in the
order they appear in the
data stream.

specifies the Contact.mtt type
tree and the Contact Data type.

tree that contains it, is the link
between the Type Designer and
the Map Designer that defines
the structure and properties of
the data in the card.
