# LoadFromFile Method

<Note>
  This is a common method. Any platform-specific implementation limitations will be listed in the topics for the objects using this method.
</Note>

This method restores the contents of the object from a file on disk, where it should have previously been saved by the [SaveToFile](/fine-reader/engine/api-reference/supplementary-objects-and-methods/savetofile-method) method.

## Syntax

### C++

```cpp theme={null}
HRESULT LoadFromFile( BSTR Path );
```

### C\#

```csharp theme={null}
void LoadFromFile( string Path );
```

### Visual Basic .NET

```vb theme={null}
Sub LoadFromFile(Path As String)
```

## Parameters

Path

\[in] This parameter of the type [BSTR](/fine-reader/engine/guided-tour/advanced-techniques/programming-aspects/working-with-properties) specifies the path to the file on disk where the contents of the object is stored. If a file specified by this path was not obtained as a result of a call to the [SaveToFile](/fine-reader/engine/api-reference/supplementary-objects-and-methods/savetofile-method) method of an object of the same type as the current one, some specific error code is returned.

## Return values

This method has no specific return values. It returns the [standard return values of ABBYY FineReader Engine functions](/fine-reader/engine/api-reference/return-codes).

## Remarks

Note that in the case when an object data is read by a [functionally limited](/fine-reader/engine/licensing/modules) ABBYY FineReader Engine version, while it was saved by a version with a wider functional set, object properties that cannot be changed in the limited version, are restored to default values.
