It is the responsibility of the sending application, connector application, and the receiving application to understand the content of this property.
Visual Basic arrays
When dimensioning arrays for extension data, always set the lower boundary of the array to 0.
When filling in the extension data, Message Queuing sets the lower boundary of the returned byte-array to 0 regardless of what boundary was set by the application.
