I have noticed that folks use parentheses after commands.  It
seems that these can be used after almost any command. I know that
parentheses are used after functions and can be used with properties.  In
What other circumstabses can they be used?
Hi Steve,

I use parentheses around command arguments when I want to make sure the interpreter understands the argument is the value of the expression:

eg: fileSDBRecord sbdBuffer
checkSDBResult (the result)

vs: fieldSDBRecord sdbBuffer
checkSDBResult the result

Essentially, I presume parens could be used with any command argument that is being passed by value.
