====== List Managment ======


==== SAVE.LIST ====

The SAVE.LIST command allows you to preserve an active select list.  It has the following format:

 

SAVE.LIST <listname>

 

Note that saving the list also "consumes" the list, so it is no longer available for further processing.  When you wish to reactivate the list, you must use the GET.LIST command.

 

==== CLEARSELECT ====

The CLEARSELECT command 'consumes' the currently active select list, so it is no longer available for processing.

==== GET.LIST ====

The GET.LIST command retrieves a saved select list and "re-activates" it.  After using GET.LIST, the list is available for further processing.  The syntax of the GET.LIST command is:

 

GET.LIST <listname>

 

==== DELETE.LIST ====

The DELETE.LIST command deletes a previously-saved list.  After using DELETE.LIST, you can no longer retrieve the saved list.  The syntax of the DELETE.LIST command is:

 

DELETE.LIST <listname>  


==== EDIT.LIST ====

The EDIT.LIST command allows you to edit an existing, or create a new, saved list.  Note that the list must be saved with the SAVE.LIST command (that is, EDIT.LIST will not work on the currently-active select list).  Also note that lists saved with the SAVE.LIST command will typically contain "control" information in field 1, which should not be altered; lists that you create yourself need not have this information on field 1.
