VARLOAD Macro Command

Reads substitution variables from a file.

The variables read from file are added to the current list if the parameter @MERGE equals 1, otherwise any current variables are erased. VARLOAD will, (by default) load all substitution variables, but will allow a named set of variables only to be loaded or merged from the file.

The general format for this macro command is:

!VARLOAD <file>[,@MERGE=<merge>] [,@DESC=$dname#][ ,$name# 
 ...]

Where:

<file> is a system file path name up to 56 chars long.
If the parameter @MERGE is not specified, or <merge> is zero, all current variables are erased.
- If <merge> is 1, any variable that already exists in memory is updated with the file value, and new variables are added to those in memory.
Both <file> and <merge> may be substitution variables.
The description supplied when the file was created can optionally be restored into a supplied variable <$dname>.
If the optional list of variables is given, only these variables are considered; otherwise all variables are loaded. The list may be extended onto as many lines as necessary; continuation is implied by ending the previous line with a comma.

Example

!varload \Studio 3\projects\$proj, merge=1, 
$title1#, $title2#, $xmin#, $xmax#, $ymin#, $ymax#
