Comments

The *SetSystem() statement defines the scope for all of the *Set() statements that follow it. For example, if one system definition is used three times, and the system definition creates a vector, then the model contains three vectors with the same names. The *SetSystem() statement identifies which of the three vectors are affected by succeeding *Set() statements.
