In this manual, the place where the name is inserted is shown by a description of the type of name, in italics. For example, message 1146 is shown in this manual as: 1146 procedure-name lies in more than one PERFORM THRU range If the procedure-name concerned were CALCULATE-TAX, the actual message displayed would be: CALCULATE-TAX lies in more than one PERFORM THRU range Environments Some of the chapters in this book are common (generic) between versions of this product for DOS, OS/2 and Windows and versions for UNIX.

The term "Windows" means Microsoft Windows V3.0 or later.
