To unsubscribe please vi
use EVAL "@RECORD<40> | @RECORD<53>" etc
basicaly anything you can use in an I type dict item, tho there are
restrictions I believe on number of levels.

You can use any expression valid in a virtual attribute. So:
list thisfile eval
"EXTRACT(@RECORD,40,0,0):'|':EXTRACT(@RECORD,53,0,0):'|':EXTRACT(@RECORD
,<>,0,0)"
In this case the <> will prompt you for the attribute
number to use

Jeff,
For the "something.else" use @RECORD. You could
even use OCONV(@RECORD,"correlative") if the something.else

list thisfile eval "prod.num:'|':pck.qty:'|':@RECORD<###>" fmt "255l"
-OR-
list thisfile eval "prod.num:'|':pc
I am trying to use eval to format a response from a uniquery list. This
works if I use dictionary items but for some attribute there either is
not a dictionary or it is pointing to an incorrect attribute.
How can I use an attribute directly?
Hypothetical Dictionary Example:
list thisfile eval "p
