XML files, which have the searchSpecificationAttribute or the searchSpecificationValue
specified for a business component:
- PersonalTitle.xml

However, the
viewMode attribute is a required
attribute in the definition of a business component, and cannot be
deleted.
The following table gives the default values
of view modes for
the Multi-Value Group (MVG) business component. It also provides the
default values for the PickList business component attributes in the

of attributes, see
