RESOURCE Mnemonic - Invoke Prepared Resource
Syntax
'RESOURCE'(size),resource_string$
Description
For BBj-specific information, see RESOURCE Mnemonic - Invoke Prepared Resource.
The 'RESOURCE' mnemonic displays a window/dialog created with the BASIS Resource Editor. The size parameter must be the length of the string returned by the RESGET() Function - Get Resource function. In Revision 2.20 and above, if an !ERROR=12 (missing file) occurs while creating a tool button or image, the 'RESOURCE' mnemonic sets TCB(10) to the ID number of the control that caused the error. Before using this mnemonic, open the resource with the RESOPEN() function and extract the string for one window with the RESGET() function, as shown in the example.
