lest I forget:
macro comments can appear -inside- a SAS statement:

attrib %*ids;
       Record_Type     length = $ 1 %*H:Header, P:Program, S:Score,
                                      T:Termination==EndoFile;
       Program_Num     length =   3 %*integer2;
       CLIA_Num        length = $10 %*char10.;
       Test_Yr         length =   4 %*integer4: ccYY;
       Test_ID_Num     length = $ 3 %*char3.;
       Action_Type     length =   4 %*integer1;
       Record_Seq_Num  length =   8 %*integer7;
       Eff_Dt          length =   8 %*mdy;
