I still believe there is some confusion in your explanation, because you haven't explained what you are trying to do with your script, give a certain message, execute a command, etc ...
If you only need to ( block) comment lines 5 - 12 out, then that's pretty easy, either use # sign as suggested, or porter's way, or the best way : delete lines 5 - 12 .
It's simply not enough saying script doesn't work. First what are you trying to achieve with your script, besides the point of blocking lines 5 -12 ? Post your script if needed.
I got no problem running happily the following script in my linux machine,( no ksh available, should be the same though ! ).

xcalpr
XCALPR(1) General Commands Manual XCALPR(1)NAME
xcalpr - print xcal calendar entries
SYNTAX
xcalpr [ -c ][ -x ][ -f file ][ -d dir ][ -u user ][ date-spec ]
DESCRIPTION
Xcalpr prints the contents of the xcal files. It is intended to be used in situations when you have no access to an X screen. It can also
be used to generate entries for the standard UNIX calendar program.
With no arguments, it prints any entries that exist for the next seven days. The program also reads the contents of the seven daily files
and prints them at the appropriate point in the output stream. Each line in the output is preceded by the day of the week, the day of the
month, the month and the year.
Xcalpr can be given a date specification to select months and years. If the date spec consists of just a year number, then all the data
for that year is printed. For example:
xcalpr 1994
will print all the data for 1994. Several years can be specified.
If you give the name of a month, then the data for that month in the current year will be printed. If the month is in the past, then the
data for that month next year will be printed. For example, if
xcalpr oct jan
is typed in August, xcalpr will print October in the current year and January next year.
You can select a particular year by adding the number after any months that you need printing:
xcalpr oct nov 1994
will print October and November in 1994.
There are a couple of special `month' names. The name rest will print the data for the rest of the month, starting tomorrow. The rest
argument is not recognised if you give a year as a parameter. If tomorrow happens to be the first day of the next month, then all the data
for next month will be printed. The name next prints all the data for next month.
OPTIONS
The -c option causes xcalpr to output lines suitable for input to the standard UNIX calendar program.
The -d switch is followed by a directory name and specifies an alterative location for your Calendar directory. Your home directory is
prepended if the name doesn't start with a slash or a dot.
The -f option is followed by a file name and xcalpr will write it's output to that file, rather than standard output.
The -u option is followed by a user name and dumps their calendar files rather than yours.
The -x option makes xcalev operate with Calendar files that are compatible with the xcalendar program.
FILES
$HOME/Calendar/*
xc<dd><Mon><Year> A data file is day, Month in three letter format and the year.
xy<Year> A year directory.
xw<Day> A data file for the weekly code, one per day.
