George,

        If I understand correctly you are trying to end up with a list
of the VARB1's from FILE1 that are valid record keys in FILE2, correct?

        If I'm right so far, what I'd do is create an I-descriptor in
FILE1 that does a TRANS to FILE2, like this:

CHECK.FILE2
0001: I
0002: TRANS("FILE2", VARB1, 0, "X")
...

        TRANS works for multivalued fields, by the way.  So then your
SELECT could be:

SELECT FILE1 WITH CHECK.FILE2 # "" SAVING VARB1

SAVE-LIST XX

Subject: [U2] How do you do a NOPAGE on a SELECT?

ok...(UV 10 )

I'm doing the following:

SELECT FILE1 SAVING VARB1  (PICK format SELECT - to allow multivalued
SAVING) SELECT FILE2 SAVE-LIST XX

Problem is when there are VARB1 items in FILE1 that are not valid ID's
in
FILE2
   the SELECT FILE2 displays all the ID's that are not valid ID's.

If I'm typing the commands, no problem...just hit 'n', however, if I put
them in a VOC, and execute the VOC from a program, the operator has to
hit 'n'.

What would be nice would be if there was a NOPAGE, or a HUSH option to
SELECT.

My workaround is:

SELECT FILE1 SAVING VARIB1 TO 1
SELECT FILE2 TO 2
MERGE.LIST 1 INTERSECT 2
SAVE-LIST XX

George
