CLOSE DOCUMENT closes the document specified by docRef.
Closing a document is the only way to ensure that the data written to a file is saved. You must close all the documents you open with the commands Open document, Create document or Append document.
The following example lets the user create a new document, writes the string “Hello” into it, and closes the document:
C_TIME(vhDocRef)
vhDocRef:=Create document("")
If(OK=1)
SEND PACKET(vhDocRef;"Hello") ` Write one word into the document
CLOSE DOCUMENT(vhDocRef) ` Close the document
End if
