Keep the following guidelines in mind when you write linear procedures:
If a command spans more than one line, type + at the beginning of the continuation line. + is the continuation character. For example:
RUN QUERY (&&VAR1 = 'THIS IS A VALUE FOR VAR1.' &&VAR2 = 'THIS +IS A VALUE FOR VAR2.'
QMF does not insert a space between the last character of the first line and the first character of the second line, unless either of the following is true:
You cannot use a continuation character in a comment line, command keyword, or substitution variable name. You can use a continuation character in a substitution variable value, if you enclose the value in single quotes.
You can type comments and blank lines between continuation lines.
