Wills response answered my question. Again it looks like the I-type is
the better way to work around. I wish the compiled binary code of
I-types didn't mess up my terminal when I display the dictionary ;-).

Thanks,

Subject: [U2] Correlative referencing multi-value field (part II)

In regards to my first question it sounds like the I-type is how you get
around the summing a multi-value from another file.

In that same vain. I have one file with a correlative to another file
whose
field is multi-value of a list of dates. When I LIST the first file I
would
like a field definition that will display the multi-value of the second
file
with OCONV format for date display.

Here is are the contents of my 2 files-
LIST.ITEM RODTEST1 10:29:11am  02 Sep 2004  PAGE    1
    1
001 BINGO
    2
001 BANGO
    3
001 BONGO

LIST.ITEM RODTEST2 10:29:27am  02 Sep 2004  PAGE    1
    1
001 RED
002 13394}13395}13396
    2
001 BLUE
002 13393
    3
001 GREEN
002 13391}13392

Here is the dictionary definition with the correlative and the OCONV
CT DICT RODTEST1 FIELD2
     FIELD2
0001 A
0002 0
0003     Field2
0004
0005
0006
0007 D4/
0008 F;0;(TRODTEST2;X;;2)
0009 R
0010 10

Here is the output from the LIST command
LIST RODTEST1 FIELD2 10:30:28am  02 Sep 2004  PAGE    1
RODTEST1..     Field2

1          13394 1339
           5 13396
2          08/31/2004
3          13391 1339
           2

3 records listed.

With the value marks replaced with spaces only the single value field
gets
displayed correctly.

Any ideas on how I can reference a multi-value field and retain its
multi-value?

Thanks in advance...
