Does the MERGE command allow naming a template that existing in a file *OTHER* than REPORTS? In the banded report writer, the command syntax is:

RUNREPORT tablename rowname options…

I'd like to know if MERGE allows:

MERGE tablename rowname options…

Thanks for your help!

Even better, write a command MYMERGE which does it all for you.
