Hi!

Take a look to _INCLUDE system variable.

Include file is useful for development to compile programs only. When you compiled EXE it is no longer needed. Well, if you have code compiled in run-time that might use these constants, you will require to get that file with EXE and distribute it too, than set up the _INCLUDE variable in run-time. I did not ever tried that in EXE so cannot tell if it work, so maybe for run-time compilation you will require to include it in each PRG anyway.

HTH.
