STORE <expr> TO <memvar list>
        | <array>

<memvar> | <array> = <expr>

-----------------------------------
Stores data to memory variable or an array.
-----------------------------------

STORE sets value of each memory variable in <memvar list> to value of
<expr>.

An alternative to STORE for storing data to memory variables and arrays
is to use the equal sign (=) as shown above.  Memory variable or array
must be on the left side of the equal sign; the value to be stored must
be on the right side.

Dates can be stored directly to memory variables by using braces:  STORE
{12/25/90} TO XMAS.

<expr>
        Expression whose value is to be stored to each memory variable in
<memvar list> or to each element in <array>.

<memvar list>
        If memory variable currently exists, STORE replaces its old value with
new value <expr>.  If no memory variable currently exists with given
name, one is created and initialized to <expr>.

<array>
        STORE can also be used to initialize every element of a memory variable
array to a specified value if COMPATIBLE is SET OFF.  The array must be
created first to use STORE to initialize an array.
