Component Ranges
The component range of a data object defines the number of consecutive
occurrences of that component. If a component range is other than the default
(1:1), it appears in the group window after the component name in parenthesis.
The component rule bar appears on group and category windows. The component
rule bar is used to specify the component range and component rules for the
selected component in the window. You can enter text in the component rule bar
or drag objects from type trees into component rules. For detailed information on
component rules, see the Type Designer Reference Guide.
The Middle Name Field is an optional component. Optional components must
have 0 as the minimum component range value. The range for Middle Name
Field is (0:1), indicating a minimum of zero occurrences and a maximum of one
occurrence.
To enter a component range for Middle Name Field
