Haeaeh -- Syntax error?

Problem:  The execution of a REXX program leads to mysterious syntax 
          errors. 

 Hint:  Check the file for unbalanced comment chars. A simple way to do 
        that is: Use the find-and-replace-function of your editor to 
        replace the string "/*" with "/*" and the string "*/" with "*/". 
        The number of changes for both calls should be equal. If not, 
        there's an unbalanced comment in your file. 
        Another method to detect unbalanced comment chars: Use an editor 
        with syntax highlighting.
