>Yep, and this is fairly well known. Part of the problem is that the syntax coloring fails to note that the lines following the first are considered by the compiler as continuations. Since the first line is a comment, the remainder are as well.

It was noted in VFUG Newsletter quite recently...

Also I would put a space between comma and a semi-colon. You don't have to, but it increases the readability...
