Setting the "-import" Run-time Option

After the relevant programs are compiled, you need to execute them. Perform this step as if you were running the programs normally, except that you should add the -import option to the runtime command line. The ability to add the -import option is managed through the Project Settings dialog box.

After the relevant programs are compiled, you need to execute them. Perform this step as if you were running the programs normally, except that you should add the -import option to the runtime command line. The ability to add the -import option is managed through the Project Settings dialog box as follows:

  1. Select the Project > Settings command to display the Project Settings dialog box. Choose the Runtime tab.
  2. Select Common Options in the catalog drop-down box. Check the -import option, Import screen file.
  3. Select OK to save the setting.
  4. Select Save as Default to save the setting in the default.pof file. These settings are applied to new projects when they are created.

Alternatively, to select the -import option, you can right-click the program node in the File tab and select the Screen Import command. Note that only the Windows 32-bit runtime supports the -import option. Also, you must have the file WEXPRT32.DLL installed in the same directory as the runtime. This .DLL comes with the 32-bit Windows runtime, but is used only for the import function.
