BEGIN
statements

| BEGIN | Declares a single code statement structure. |
| statements | Executable program instructions. |
The BEGIN compiler directive tells the compiler to treat the statements as a single structure. The BEGIN structure must be terminated by a period or the END statement.
BEGIN is usually used in an EXECUTE control structure to allow several lines of code to be treated as one.
Example:
EXECUTE Value
Proc1 !Execute if Value = 1
BEGIN !Execute if Value = 2
Value += 1
Proc2
END
Proc3 !Execute if Value = 3
END
