If I create a list of common keywords as follows PUT COMMON-KEYS KEYWORDS PW=CCCCCC Subscription= Closed Owner= [log in to unmask] <common keywords go here> Then, I create lists which include these keywords and some other keywords as follows: PUT new-list LIST PW=CCCCCC * new-list description * .IK COMMON-KEYS * Subscription= Open * Owner= [log in to unmask] Will the "Subscription= Open" override the definition of Subscription from COMMON-KEYS? Will the "Owner= [log in to unmask]" add this owner to the list of owners defined in COMMON-KEYS? Or will it override? Is there a general rule? Paul Franco Periphonics Corp.
