#INSERT Preprocessor Directive

Syntax

#INSERT FileName

Arguments

FileName

Specifies the name of the header file that is merged into the program during compilation.

Remarks

The #INSERT menu and screen generator directive inserts the contents of FileName into generated menu or screen code.

Use #INSERT to include a file in a generated menu or screen program. For example, use #INSERT to place #DEFINE ... #UNDEF statements from a file in the beginning of a generated menu or screen program.

This directive can appear in any snippet; it does not have to be in a particular snippet, such as the setup code snippet. Additionally, the directive can appear anywhere in a snippet.

FileName must be a text file. The generator searches for the file in the current directory, in the FoxPro directory and subdirectories and along the MS-DOS path. If the file cannot be found, the screen generator comments your code - indicating that the file could not be found - and then continues the generation process.

Note   This file cannot include other screen generator directives.
