I saw a note in the online discussion about save_select storing a header record. I have noticed this. If I do a save_select and then call reporter (reporter is using your GETLIST routine), reporter beeps when it executes the getlist. I assume it is because of the header record. Is this true?

Also, does Activate_Save_Select strip the header off or do I have to always skip record 1?

We've used the 'Getlist' routine in reporter, with lists I know have the header record - and it seems to be OK. Activate_Save_Select takes care of the header by looking for the delimiters (I believe).

The only time you should have to be concerned with it would be when you directly read a record from the SYSLISTS file - then you would have to check/skip the first field.

Are you getting any other error message when the report executes?

No other errors. It just beeps sometimes, but maybe it is not because of the header record. Thanks for the info.
