Answer

I don't know why "Write-Debug" was used. I'm not a PowerBuilder programmer myself, but the general intent of the the "Write-Debug" is to output to a console of some sort (to do debug output). You can replace "Write-Debug" with anything that emits output to wherever you desire (or you can remove it altogether). I hope that helps.

I'll try to find a suitable alternative to "Write-Debug" and then regenerate the examples. If you have any suggestions, please let me know.
