Note

Synopsis

obj = NOTE/(origin),{scratch file #1[,IFERR,label:]|'text'[,'text']+}

Description

Creates a note by specifying the text origin and either a text string or scratch file 1. If you specify scratch file 1, the statement reads whatever text it finds into the note.

You may also specify and IFERR label to jump to, if the NOTE statement cannot read scratch file 1.

Parameters

Parameter

Description

(origin)

The text location. For the methods of specification, see Defining the Origin.

scratch file #1

The text which exists in scratch file number one may be used for the note. Each line of text in this file appears on a separate line in the note.

IFERR,label:

If scratch file number one is used for the text, the optional IFERR parameters may be used. This feature provides the capability of branching to another statement, specified by (LABEL:), in the program if an error occurs in reading the scratch file.

'text','text'

The 'text' parameters is text between single quotes or string variables. In either case, each text parameter is placed on a new line. Up to 1000 lines of text may be included. Notes should not exceed 132 characters per line. This includes special control characters used to generate GD&T symbols, diameter symbols, etc. If you create text with these symbols, you must include these special control characters in the total character count. If the note is read from a file, there is no limit to the size except for the 132 characters per line limit.
