The END
statement is used to mark the physical end of a
Natural program. No symbols may follow the END
statement.
In reporting mode, any processing loop which is currently active
(that is, which has not been closed with a LOOP
statement) is closed by the
END
statement.
When an END
statement is executed in a main program
(that is, a program executing on Level 1), final end-page processing is
performed as well as final break processing for user-initiated breaks
(PERFORM BREAK
PROCESSING
) which have not been associated with a processing
loop by specifying a reference
notation
(r)
.
When an END
statement is executed in a subprogram, or
in a program invoked with FETCH
RETURN
, control will be returned to the invoking program
without any final processing.
For some typical examples, see Examples of DEFINE DATA Statement Usage.
