// Name of file to track
sFileName is string = "C:\Temp\MyDir\MyFile.extension"
// The ProcessModification procedure will be called when the
// "C:\Temp\MyDir\MyFile.extension" file is modified.
IF fTrackFile(sFileName, fTrackFile_Callback, ...
ftCreateFile + ftModifyFile + ftDeleteFile + ...
ftRename) THEN
// Inform the user that the file will be tracked
Info("The " + sFileName + " file will be tracked.")
ELSE
// Inform the user that the file will not be tracked
Info("The " + sFileName + " file will not be tracked.")
END
// Code of the procedure
INTERNAL PROCEDURE fTrackFile_Callback(sFullName, sFileName, nAction, sOldFileName)
sActionDesignation is string
// The designation of the action depends on nAction
SWITCH nAction
CASE ftCreateFile: sActionDesignation = "Creating files"
CASE ftDeleteFile: sActionDesignation = "Deleting files"
CASE ftModifyFile: sActionDesignation = "Modifying files"
CASE ftRename: sActionDesignation = "Renaming files"
END
// Add a line containing the information about the modification
// in the TABLE_MODIFICATIONS control
TableAddLine(TABLE_MODIFICATIONS, sFullName, sFileName, ...
sActionDesignation, sOldFileName)
END
Syntax
<Result> = fTrackFile(<File to track> , <WLanguage procedure> [, <Modifications to notify>])

A specific management mode must be implemented if some windows must be handled in threads (rare case). For more details, see Opening a window in a secondary thread.
