a hierarchy of collections. Using this sample you can browse collections,
set and change properties of elements in the collection and save your changes
to the COM+ catalog.

To start with, you are on the root collection.
2. Click on Applications
in the Related Collections listbox. This will
display a list of COM+ applications installed on your system
3. Click the Add
button (third button from left) to add a new COM+ application.
4. In the Objects list a
new entry New Application appears. Click on New Application.
5. Now set the application
name by selecting the Name property in the properties list.
6. Change the name to My
New App. Then click the Set button.
