SAVE TEMP

To store a strategy temporarily, run your search online and then enter the command SAVE TEMP after you have created your final set. The strategy is stored for seven days, free of charge. The name begins with "T," for Temporary.

To use the stored strategy during the next seven days, BEGIN in the database in which you want to run the search, then enter the command EXECUTE or EXECUTE STEPS followed by the serial number or name of the search.

The SAVE TEMP command stores any of the following commands that you have entered since your last BEGIN command:

Commands Stored with Save Temp

IDENTIFY DUPLICATES IDENTIFY DUPLICATES ONLY PRINT PRINT TITLE REMOVE DUPLICATES

SELECT SELECT STEPS SET SORT Comment Lines

A RECALL of the SearchSave displays all of these command lines, but PRINT and PRINT TITLE do not EXECUTE when you run the SearchSave online with EXECUTE or EXECUTE STEPS.

In the next example, a search is run and the strategy is stored with SAVE TEMP. The EXECUTE STEPS (EXS) command runs the SearchSave.
