The SAVE-LIST command gives a select-list a name and stores it as an item in the specified file (with POINTER-FILE as the default). POINTER-FILE may either be the system POINTER-FILE (in the SYSPROG) account or a local POINTER-FILE. If the system POINTER-FILE is used, the select-list is accessible to all other accounts on the system. A saved select-list may be removed from the POINTER-FILE with the DELETE-LIST command.
To save a select-list, type SAVE-LIST immediately after creating the list. For example:
>SELECT ORDERS WITH AMOUNT > "25000" 23 ITEMS SELECTED. >SAVE-LIST LARGE-ORDERS LIST 'LARGE-ORDERS' SAVED - 1 FRAMES USED. |
The system reports the number of frames used to store the LARGE-ORDERS select-list, in this case, one frame.
NOTE |
If a saved select-list of the same name already exists, the new one overwrites it without asking for confirmation. |
