Hi,

[Ian Wilson]

Quite right, or more formally:

      Syntax Form Action 
      Quoted form This form instructs the preprocessor to look for include files in the same directory of the file that contains the #include statement, and then in the directories of whatever files that include (#include) that file. The preprocessor then searches along the path specified by the /I compiler option, then along paths specified by the INCLUDE environment variable. 
      Angle-bracket form This form instructs the preprocessor to search for include files first along the path specified by the /I compiler option, then along the path specified by the INCLUDE environment variable. 


Which, as you will know, is taken directly from the help file on #include directives.

Hopefully that about covers it all. :)

Ian

  Hi; 
  if you look at the c convection you well see that the first is to the default directory to find all the h files. 
  but if you want to specify a specific path or the present directory , to look first. you have use "   "  otherwise 
  it default to the <    > directory where ever have provide that path. 
  Hope this help.

    I am not exactly sure what you mean, but it might be that you have to add another include directory path under the tools, options, directories tab, then click on the show 'directories for' drop down menu and select include files. Then add a complete path to where all the header files are.  As I mentioned, I am not exactly sure that this is a solution to your problem based on the way you presented your question but I hope it helps. Ian
