Actually,  the QSELECT syntax with parenthetical option:

QSELECT file 'key' (#

is supported in the Pick and IN2 flavors

That works on old Mentor and Ultimate, but apparently not on this
version of UV.  QSELECT only selects attributes.

Does UniVerse have QSELECT?  I see it is mentioned in the "Guide to
RetrieVe" Manual.
"Creating Select Lists
Select lists are created using the RetrieVe commands SELECT, SSELECT,
and SEARCH (or ESEARCH), as well as the non-RetrieVe commands NSELECT,
QSELECT, and FORM.LIST)."

QSELECT FILE.A 'key' (1

That's how we used to have to do it in the olden days.

To: <[email protected]> cc: Subject: [U2] [UV] Select returning mv'd list

Universe 9.6, I want to select a record from a file and return a mv'd
list of information in attribute 1, each attribute as a separate list
element.  On Unidata, I can:

SELECT FILE.A 'key' F1

...and it'll return all the values in F1 as individual items in the
active select list.  On Universe, this does not work.  So I tried:

SELECT FILE.A 'key' SAVING UNIQUE F1

...and I get all the items, but they come in one attribute, mv'd, not
split out on each line like Unidata would.

I've also tried QSELECT, but apparently the option to QSELECT a single
attribute from a file is not supported here here.

How do you select a record from a file and return a mv'd list from an
attribute in that record?
