DialogWeb—Command

Use the TEMP option to create a temporary SearchSave that is stored on Dialog for seven days. The search is automatically released after seven days, and no storage charges are incurred.

If you do not include TEMP in a MAP command, the SearchSave it creates is permanent and remains stored on Dialog until you RELEASE it. A minimal storage charge is incurred each month that the SearchSave remains on the system.

In the following example, the MAP DC TEMP command is used in File 351, Derwent World Patents Index®, to create a temporary SearchSave of Derwent Class codes found in the patents retrieved by a search-term SELECT. The class codes are sorted alphanumerically within the SearchSave. Note that the SearchSave serial number starts with a "T," which denotes it as temporary.

The SearchSave is run using EXECUTE STEPS (EXS) in the same database to retrieve other patents that have been assigned at least one of the MAPped class codes. The set created by the SearchSave (S2) is combined with an additional search term for a Patent Assignee (PA=) to complete the strategy.

• To use the TEMP option:

           16681  SHOE/TI
