NOTES—Set or Query Note Mode

The NOTES macro command sets note mode, which controls whether notes are to appear when a dialog development model is inserted into the data.

The NOTES assignment statement either sets note mode, or retrieves the setting of note mode and places it in a variable.

See MODEL—Copy a Model into the Current Data Set for information about copying dialog development models.
