Reserved words

The words PocketBuilder uses internally are called reserved words and cannot be used as identifiers. If you use a reserved word as an identifier, you get a compiler warning. Reserved words that are marked with an asterisk (*) can be used as function names.

The PocketBuilder system class also includes private variables that you cannot use as identifiers. If you use a private variable as an identifier, you get an informational message and should rename your identifier.
