If a REM statement is added on the same line as a command, then it must be prefixed with a colon (the end-of-line statement). This is not required when using the apostrophe comment prefix.
Examples
Dim MyStr1, MyStr2
MyStr1 = "Hello" : Rem Comment after a statement separated by a colon.
MyStr2 = "Goodbye" ' This is also a comment; no colon is needed.
Rem Comment on a line with no code; no colon is needed.
