Procedure example syntax

/* definitions */
DEFINE VAR cVar AS CHAR NO-UNDO.

PROCEDURE bob.
message 'bob procedure' view-as alert-box.
END PROCEDURE.

/* main block here */

DO:
RUN bob in THIS-PROCEDURE.
END.

Definitely check out the documentation. The Handbook and Reference books cover all the basics and will get you started.

/* untested */
output to "c:\test.txt".
for each customer
where customer.add_to_system_date = today
no-lock:
  put unformatted customer.name customer.address skip.
end.
output close.
