#DECLARE( symbol );

The #DECLARE statement declares a user-defined symbol for use in the template. The symbol is simply created and not initialized to any particular value, therefore it may be destined to contain either string or numeric data.

Example:

#DECLARE(MySymbol); //declare a symbol named "MySymbol"
#SET(MySymbol,11); //initialize MySymbol to 11
OUTPUT(%'MySymbol'%)
