General syntax rules
The general rules for coding the operands are the same as those for the operands in SUM/PURGE.
- If operands are to be continued, end the first line with a comma-blank.
- Comments are allowed after a blank.
- Comment lines are designated by an asterisk in column 1.
- If a value contains special characters such as blank, equal sign, or comma, enclose the value in quotation marks.
- Multiple values for a keyword are enclosed in parentheses and separated by commas.
- Multiple keywords may be coded on a single line, separated by commas.
- Undefined keywords, invalid values, missing delimiters, and such generate error messages.
