George, You could try using READLIST to make a dynamic array from an active select list. LIST<-1>="XXX" would work. Use FORMLIST to make the dynamic array an active select list and then save the list. This is available in unidata. I don't know if this is available in universe.

no. I'm just going to use the SAVE-LIST/GET-LIST and read a dynamic array from
&SAVEDLISTS& in between.

It's easy, and flavor independent.
