I have an XML template that I run a substitution process on when froming aa
request.
I currently read the template from a file.
I want to embed the template into the compliled code. The request is just
few KB's long, but I don't want to code a line by line concatenation.Does
some facility exist to embed larger text?

If you are using VB6 you can do either of the following or a combination...
(If using dotNet the same applies except the limitations are different.
There is also another option, but for that you should post in a dotNet
newsgroup.)
Yes you can define a Const.
A Const can be built using the concatenation operator. There is a limit on
the number of lines that can be concatinated (somewhere around 22 I think).
Not sure about how long any one line can be. Been awhile since I tested it.
But you'll soon find out. <g>
You can create a routine to build the string.
The string can be built from simple assignments and from constants. In any
XML there are a ton of repeating elements.
The difference between the two is the handling of white space (spaces and
carriage returns) Anyway just start pasting and see what works for you.
