The current documentation for the LOCAL command is deficient.

1) Under Parameters, VarList is simply described with "Specifies one or more local variables to create." and it is only under the Remarks section that it states "Items within VarList are separated by commas.".
This statement BELONGS with the description of VarList under the Parameters section. It is most unhelpful with its current placement!

2) The syntax 'diagram' fails to show the "...As VarType..." clause. This clause IS mentioned under the Remarks section in the statement "The strong typing required by the CodeSense parser in IntelliSense is available only when you create strongly typed object and variable references by using the optional AS clause.". The optional "...AS..." clause needs tobe shown

3) There are no examples. There should be, not only to show the "...AS..." clause usage but also because many people have difficulty properly coding several array declarations in a single command.
