#NOTE Statement

The #NOTE statement provides a means of placing documentation within a panel definition. The #NOTE statement is not processed and is ignored. Multiple #NOTE statements can be specified. However, as with #FLD, #ERR, and #OPT statements, all #NOTE statements must precede the start of the panel. The start of the panel is determined by the first line that is not a control statement or #NOTE statement.

This statement has the following format:

#NOTE any text

any text

Any free form user text.

Examples:

#NOTE This panel is used by the Network Error Log System
#NOTE INWAIT=60 CURSOR=&CURSORFLD

Note: As shown in the example above the #NOTE statement can provide a simple means of temporarily nullifying another control statement allowing for easy reinstatement when required.
