Checking Syntax
The Program Editor lets you check the function or program for correct syntax.
▶ From the CheckSyntax&Store menu, click Check Syntax.
If the syntax checker finds any syntax errors, it displays an error message and tries
to position the cursor near the first error so you can correct it.
Storing the Function or Program
You must store your function or program to make it accessible. The Program Editor
automatically checks the syntax before storing.
An asterisk (*) is displayed in the upper left corner of the Program Editor to indicate
that the function or program has not been stored.
▶ From the CheckSyntax&Store menu, click CheckSyntax&Store.
If the syntax checker finds any syntax errors, it displays an error message and tries
to position the cursor near the first error.
If no syntax errors are found, the message “Stored successfully“is displayed in the
status line at the top of the Program Editor.
Note: If the function or program is defined as a library object, you must also save the
document in the designated library folder and refresh libraries to make the object
accessible to other documents. For more information, see Libraries.
Viewing a Program or Function
