I’m just starting out on a component for Joomla. I can’t figure out how to add an entry in the dB so I can access the component.
I looked at the dB table for components, but some of the columns seem to require some specific info.
This is NOT a finished component, but a new one I want to build.
I am using Joomla 1.7.
take care,
lee
As Jogesh_p suggested, the easy way is to create an xml file like this

If you are just starting out with Joomla development then take a look at the Hello World tutorial.

Another option to create a Joomla component quickly is to use EasyCreator, which will create the basic parts of the extension that you can then build on.
