Preface : Using ABL documentation
 

Using ABL documentation

OpenEdge provides a special purpose programming language for building business applications. In the documentation, the formal name for this language is ABL (Advanced Business Language). With few exceptions, all keywords of the language appear in all UPPERCASE, using a font that is appropriate to the context. All other alphabetic language content appears in mixed case.
For the latest documentation updates see the OpenEdge Product Documentation Overview page on Progress Communities:
