Matt:

<code>

---- File1
constant
strConstant1 = "This a string constant from file 1"
---- end of File1

---- File2
constant
strConstant2 = "This a string constant from file 2"
---- end of File2

---- File3
constant
strConstant3 = "This a string constant from file 3"
---- end of File3

---- MAIN FILE
include file1
include file2
include file3

procedure useit(sequence s)
  -- process s here
end procedure

-- These are ok
useit(strConstant1)
useit(strConstant2)
useit(strConstant3)

-- THIS IS WRONG BECAUSE OF THE QUOTES, I DO NOT WANT TO PROCESS THIS.

useit("strConstant1")
