Hi all

Here is my problem:
I have an ISPF table, and I need to TBDISPL only particular record, for example ? only the records that have values A, D and L in FIELD1. No other conditions.
As you can see, I can?t use one TBSARG, because the values are not sequential.
As far as I know (and test), if I issue multiple TBSARG, only the last one will be in effect.

The problem is that the values are known only when the user ?zooms? from a previous TBDISPL, which means that all the operations are done online, and the user is waiting for the results to be displayed, so time is critical.

For now, I have two options:
1. Create a temporary table, and populate it only with the desired records, then display the temporary table instead of the original one;
2. Add a ?dummy? field to my table, populate it with special value for the desired records, and then TBSARG for that field.

Does anyone have a better method?

Thanks

O.

Ofer71,

I would go with option 1. Also I was thinking of ALTSEQ used in sort. Can you change the altseq so that A, D, L are clubbed together
