<cFileName> is the name and path to the screen file.

<nOffset> is an optional offset into the file from which a screen
may be read. The default is the beginning of file.

Returns

FileScreen() returns the number of bytes read from the file.

Description

FileScreen() is used to read a screen stored in a disk file stored by
using ScreenFile().

<nOffset> may be use to get a particular screen if more than one screen
has been stored in the file.

Notes

■ Files may contain End-Of-File markers - these are ignored as
FileScreen() always read in the number of bytes tht make up the
current application window.

■ Wildcards are not permitted within filenames or paths.

■ This function does not alter the cursor position.

Examples

■ Read a screen from the beginning of a file:

FileScreen("C:\Screens\Demo1.Sht")

■ Read the second screen. Since the offset is specified as
4000, the first screen is skipped:

FileScreen("C:\Screens\Demo1.Sht", 4000)
