HP ALLBASE/4GL Developer Reference Manual Vol. 2

NOTE Command 

The NOTE command inserts a comment into a process or function logic
block.

Format 

     NOTE comment 

Parameters 

comment 

Any series of characters except semicolons ( ; ).

Description 

The NOTE command inserts comments into a function or process logic block
or annotates nominated command steps.  HP ALLBASE/4GL ignores all
characters in the note.

The NOTE command may precede or follow most other logic commands on the
same step.  When you use this facility, you must separate the NOTE
command from the other commands with a semicolon.

Some logic commands allow you to specify an optional command that is
executed if an error occurs while the command is being performed.  These
commands are CALC, DATE, FILE, MATH, MATHLOOP, and VALIDATE. You cannot
use a NOTE command after any of these commands.

Example 

     VISIT V-fn_name; NOTE variable fn_name holds function name
