Well,.. this might work, but not as a selection criteria, which i think =

was Henryks problem in the first place. Now my problem is, as I tried to=

explain in an earlier posting (not very clearly I'm sure), that the =
 
'lockword' variable (keyword...?) do work that way, but only with proper=

capabilities. Without AM-caps (or whatever is needed) it is ignored. =
 
IMHO using the 'lockword' variable without proper caps should either =
 
produce an error (as does listf,-3) or a warning ('lockword' used =
 
without AM-caps, ignored).
