Comments

You can explicitly create a result set by adding the characters -> and an appropriate name to the end of any set processing command.

The result setname can be:

  1. the name of a set object in the database. The set specification used in the main command must be consistent with the structure defined for the set object in the Object Dictionary.
  2.  the name of a result set previously created by a set-producing command such as FIND or DELETE. The set specification used in the main command must be consistent with the structure of the previously named result set unless a SET CHECKSETS OFF command has been issued.
  3. a new name

Example

find Employees where LastName = "Jones" -> JSet

The result set JSet contains all records from Employees in which the last name is Jones.
