COMMENT 

Allows you to add comments to an XEQ file.

Syntax 

     CO[MMENT] text 

Parameter 

text                   is a string of up to 698 characters.  A comment
                       can be continued with an ampersand.

Discussion 

The COMMENT command cannot be embedded with the DEFINE, DATA-BASE=,
REPORT, ALTER, or UPDATE ADD commands since it will be interpreted as
input.
