Tom: It sounds like the LISTOF of function would do the trick for you.
Something like this should work: select (LISTOF(DISTINCT committee)) into vcomserv from cramcommittee where memberend IS NULL and memberidnum = 100039 You can then reference the list in a command like this: Select * from cramcommittee where committee in (&vcomserv) Note the use of the "&" when referencing the value(s) in the vcomserv variable. Hope that helps.

Ideally, I would like to incorporate this variable/value into a view for display on a report. I know that: "select committee from cramcommittee where memberend IS NULL and memberidnum = 100039" properly returns the values for member 100039 but, "select committee into vcomserv from cramcommittee where memberend IS NULL and memberidnum = 100039" returns the error too many rows selected if the member belongs to more than one committee. What I hope to accomplish would is: Committee 1 Committee 2 Committee 3, etc... On a report. Thank you for any guidance on this.
