Comments

You can add comments anywhere in the ASCII archive file when you create it.

To add a single line comment, place the comment after an exclamation mark (!). In
this case, the import utility ignores all text from the exclamation mark to the end of
the line.

You may also enter comments in the ASCII archive file by inserting the comment
between two percent signs. (Tabs, carriage returns or spaces before and after the
percent signs are optional.) For example: % This is a comment %. You may
include one or more carriage returns in a comment of this type.

Enter comments on a single line or several lines by themselves, or directly following
a complete ASCII command. If the import utility encounters a comment character
(% or !) between two quotation marks (“”), it considers the comment character as
part of the quoted string.

The following example shows you how comments may look in your import file.
Notice that the comments used to document ASCII files only describe those files.
The import utility does not store these comments in the database.

!This is an example of a single–line comment.
