Description

Suppose the object is created with the statement:

Notes = NOTES.New("CONDITIONS", 400, NIL, "Notes...")

Notes is an object of class NOTES. Initially its value is NIL, which NOTES.New() turns into an empty string. The field can hold up to 400 characters.

We'll use the example above throughout the class description.
