Important Notice
The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software,
purely for historical purposes.
If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming,
you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully
out of date.
Statement cannot precede SUB/FUNCTION definition
■ The only statements allowed before a procedure definition
are REM, DEFtype, EVENT ON, and EVENT OFF.
■ Possible solutions:
• Move the highlighted statement to the module-level code.
• Move the highlighted statement within the SUB or FUNCTION
template.
■ If you need additional help, move the cursor to a keyword
and press F1 to open the Help window.
