Add a variable from custom component

Hi

I am writing a custom transformation component that utilises a user variable.

Before using the variable at run time I am checking that the variable exists, but it would be nice to be able to add it if it does not. I cannot find any documentation on the subject, though I can see that the Variables class is derived from a ReadOnlyCollectionBase.

Is there a way to add a user variable with package scope from a custom component, either at run time or design time?

Thanks . . . Ed

I do not think it is possible currently.

Thanks.
