OK. I've had a chance to read this a bit more and have a question. When you
talk about creating a multi-valued I-type that gets the keys, do you mean
something like this?

core_cart_detail_keys
1: I
2: SUBR('GET.KEYS','SELECT core_cart_detail')
3:
4: Detail Keys
5: 10L
6: M

...and then a subroutine like:

SUBROUTINE GET.KEYS(KEY_LIST,COMMAND)
   COMMAND=COMMAND:" TO 9"
   EXECUTE COMMAND RTNLIST 9
   READLIST KEY_LIST FROM 9
RETURN

Is this along the right idea?
