Subject:	SCOUG-Help: Using #define constants in *.ipf help source files

Content Type: text/plain

Hello Everyone,
I have a windowing programming question:

Is there a way to use "# define constants" as resource ID's in a *.ipf source file (for a
*.HLP file), instead of "hard coding" the various resource ID's into the *.ipf source file?

I'm using the Watcom IDE tool to compile and link my source code. Can I somehow use
a header file in conjunction with the *.ipf file at compilation time? The header file would
contain the various resource ID's for the Help Manager. It would use "#define's" to do
this. Or, is there some other, alternative way? Thank you for your help.
