.CMP File Extension

Settings file created using Connection Manager, a suite of software components that enables system administrators to setup Windows remote connection profiles; saves information such as the username, password, and the phone number to dial.

CMP files enable administrators to configure initial settings for a user's dial-up connection.

NOTE: The Connection Manager Administration Kit (CMAK) is the name of the Connection Manager tool used for setting up profiles.

Text module created using HotDocs digital form preparation software; saves a "clause" which contains text as well as HotDocs components (e.g., form fields); provides a reusable object for insertion into HotDocs templates (.HFT or .HPT files).

Clauses can either be specific to a template or to a clause library (.HDL file). For example, if you create a clause while editing a HotDocs template, it will be added to the template's CMP component file.

Wire harness designed with Siemens Solid Edge Wire Harness Design, an eCAD program; contains the wire routing and cable harness design used for organizing wires in a 3D assembly (.ASM) file.

Solid Edge provides live feedback for design violations in CMP files, which prevents incorrect wiring of devices.

Drawing component created with Generic CADD, an older CAD program developed for Windows; used for storing vector objects that can be inserted in a Generic CADD drawing (.GCD) file.

NOTE: Generic CADD has been replaced by General CADD Pro (GCP), which saves components as .GXC files. CMP files can be opened by both Generic CADD and General CADD Pro.
