Scenario:

Say I'm LISTing from file1 and I want to return the value of field4 from
file4...and I have to go through 2 "intermediate" files to get what I
need.

I define an idesc like:
TRANS('file2',pointer,'field2','X');TRANS('file3',@1,'field3','X');TRANS
('file4',@2,'field4','X')

...and field2 is mv'd.


I would probably write a subr for this in most cases, but I just wanted
to see what the list had to say.  What are the gotchyas, and are there
some other UD function combos that can do this job more efficiently?


TIA
