Does Unidata allow the following type of construct SEARCHITEM = RAISE(RECORD<31) SELECTV SEARCHITEM TO MYSEARCHLIST DONE = FALSE; CNT = 0 LOOP READNEXT ITEM FROM MYSEARCHLIST ELSE DONE = TRUE ....
that's how I do this in Universe, not sure if you can do this in Unidata -----Original Message----- From: Daniel McGrath <dmcgr...@rocketsoftware.com> To: U2 Users List <u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org> Sent: Thu, Jun 7, 2012 10:26 am Subject: Re: [U2] FW: Multivalue Question UniData does not keep AM pointers.

This is your issue: NT = DCOUNT(MVDATA, @VM) OR PTR=1 TO CNT SNGDATA = MVDATA<1, PTR> ... EXT PTR Use instead: ORE.FLAG = (MVDATA # "") OOP WHILE MORE.FLAG DO SNGDATA = REMOVE(MVDATA, MORE.FLAG) ...
