Axapta file extensions
Axapta uses quite a number of file extensions for the files that are installed as part of Axapta. Even though at first sight, people will be bewildered with these te(o)ns acronyms/extensions, it follows a very good naming convention and once it’s understood, it is very easy to follow these file names and extensions.
First Letter: owner of file:
| A | Application |
| K | Kernel |
Second Letter: contents of file:
| L | Label |
| O | Object (as is AOT) |
| T | Text (only TKD) |
| D | Developer Documentation |
| H | Online Help |
Third Letter: Type of file.
| D | Data |
| I | Index |
| C | Cache |
| T | Temporary |
So a file with extension .ald is
ApplicationLabelData file.

In theory there could be 2x5x4 = 40 file extensions :)
