Syntax

LoadFromFile(FileName: String);

Parameters

FileName. Path and name of the file that should be loaded into the document.

Description

Example

Executing the example requires a form with the Button1 button, the Image_1.jpg file located in the root of disc C, a repository object with the IMAGE identifier.

    Sub Button1OnClick(Sender: Object; Args: IMouseEventArgs);
    Var
        MB: IMetabase;
        Doc: IDocument;
    Begin
        MB := MetabaseClass.Active;
        Doc := MB.ItemById("IMAGE").Edit As IDocument;
        Doc.LoadFromFile("C:\Image_1.jpg");
    End Sub Button1OnClick;

After executing the example and clicking the button the Image_1.jpg file is loaded to the IMAGE repository object.
