Thanks, Greg.  I appreciate you taking the time to explain this.

The effect you are seeing is because you are printing multiples.  The main record's field doesn't repeat so you understand that the multiple fields that print on each line are part of that record.  If it repeated, you wouldn't be sure if you had several records, with the same value, and one multiple entry per record or one record with several records in the multiple.  Does that make sense?

Chris, you're right about the validity.  I just made up the example
on-the-fly.  The real problem is that under the Cache/VMS environment, my
FileMan report automatically suppresses consecutive duplicate values, which
is very weird, since there is a  FileMan print qualifier (;N) used to
suppress them.  I want to "un-suppress" them somehow.  Please see my reply
to Greg.  Thanks.

Nancy;

   The global listed does not look like a valid Fileman Global structure,
(but it is a fine MUMPS global just the same).  If you are trying to access
this with fileman, it may not be evaluating it the way you think.  I'm kind
of surprised that the global list utility does not yield the difference in
the subsequent nodes.

that the global array to the left of the "=" sign is listed only once.
Subsequent entries with the same global array are blank to the left of
      
the
  
"=" sign, with "new" data to the right, like so:

^ABC(1,"ID")=123^124
            =321^421
            =534^543
            ...

This apparently carries over into FileMan reports, like so:

Jones, John     12344     Yes     Vet
                43214     No      Vet

Both entries are for John Jones, but his name is listed only once.

Does anyone know how to make, in this example, "John Jones" appear on
      
each
  
and every line instead of a blank?  I don't know of any print qualifiers
that cover this.  (Perhaps I should take it up with Intersystems?)
      
Thanks
  
in advance.
