The string parameter attribute @INITIFNOFILE is used to check (and initiate) the availability of the referred binary object in the current project working directory, if not available, the value is initialised.

Syntax

Place @INITIFNOFILE in the data slot of the parameter

Remarks

When a knowledge base is copied and a solution is restarted using data already selected in the above described manner, some required files may not be present at the time of executing a particular script. This may lead to confusion which you are able to avoid by adding the @INITIFNOFILE attribute to parameters representing the binary objects.
When restarting a solution, parameters with the @INITIFNOFILE attribute will be checked on the availability of the file (of which the name is contained in the parameter) on the current project directory. If not available, the value is intialised and the selection dialog is re-invoked. After selection, the file is exported again.
