Comment for physical and logical files (position 7)

You type an asterisk (*) in this position to identify this line as a comment, and then use positions 8 through 80 for comment text.

A blank line (no characters specified in positions 7 through 80) is treated as a comment. Comments can appear anywhere in DDS and are kept only in the source file. Comments are printed on the source computer printout but not on the expanded source computer printout.
