Actually I made a mistake it was copied from an email extract routine - the if should be 

if(book_number = extract ) then do /* we have an entry with the required book number */

/* depends on what fields you want to output in which order/format
    assuming  CSV then */

  outline = name||","||  /* keep on going like this with ||","|| between each field 
                                              the ||","|| concatonates strings. In this case a comma between
                                              fields*/

  rc = LineOut("outfile", outline) /* now write it out - change outfile to where you want it */

END /* end if (book_number = extract ) */ 

This will be OK as long as there are no linefeeds in "Notes" - Would leave that out to be safe.
