>I see. I'll have to look at this more some time. Until then, I'll take your word for it. :)
Dana,
To simplify maintenance, I suggest you have one single global include file. Let's say you call it DANA.H, or, more likely, the company name, or perhaps something like STANDARD.H.
This file can then reference several other include files:
#INCLUDE ExcelConstants.h
#INCLUDE WordConstants.h
#INCLUDE StandardMessages.h
etc.
You include your main include file (DANA.H) into each and every program, form, and class. You can later add additional include files to your main include file - this will affect all files that reference it (after recompiling).
BTW, forms and classes only allow a single include file anyway (specified with "Form | Include", or "Class | Include").
Hilmar.
