Script Syntax Rules

All commands requires double quotation marks (") around character variables with the exception of the SAY command. Routine names are not considered character variables and as such should not be enclosed in double quotation marks.

When using variables within a command, such as WTO or WTOR, that requires double quotation marks ("), add a space after the variable name. Additionally, you can terminate the variable name with a period (.). When a period is added after a variable name, it is removed from the statement.

The member SCRIPT within the platform server SAMPLIB contains an exec that shows how the various commands are utilized.
