I don't know exactly but LD may be short for LISTDICTS and since you're not providing a filename, it may bomb, taking the active list with it.
Sometimes on UD i wish there were an easier way to clear an active list instead of CLEARSELECT. I used TIME on all native systems but UD is more durable and gives you more chances to either get the MVQuery statement correct or actually bail with clearselect. my 1 cent. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Barry Brevik" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "U2 list (E-mail)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, March 03, 2004 9:34 PM Subject: [UV] Ever wondered how something works... > One day, I stumbled across an interesting behavior; at TCL, if I type 'L', > it results in my current SELECT list being cleared.
