If FileTools is True then assigning a file path to this property reads the file.
If FileTools is False the FileName is the path of the macro, but need not be the path of an actual file.
Macro/Module Paths
Macro/module paths are typically file paths. However, it is sometimes useful to work with macros/modules that are not stored as files. A macro/module path is of the form:
[*[*]]path[*]
Part | Description |
---|---|
'*' | Paths that being with '*' are non-file system macro/modules. The application provides the methods for reading and writing these files. Paths that begin and end with '*' are hidden from the IDE. User's can't step into or otherwise inspect the contents. |
'**' | Paths that begin with '**' are non-file system modules. The application provides the methods for reading and writing these files. Running an event-driven module loads it using LoadModule. |
path | This is the identity of the macro/module. |
