OBJECTREAD(<filename>,<object field>)
The OBJECTREAD() function reads an external binary file into a Recital Object field. It returns .T. if the operation was successful, and .F. otherwise.
The file to read in is specified in <filename>, and can be any valid Recital/4GL expression that returns a valid file name. The first three characters of the file extension are stored in the Object field as the Objects type, as returned by the OBJECTTYPE() function.
The field into which the file is placed is specified in <object field>, and must be a Recital Object field in the currently selected workarea.
