  18. Joan,

  20. 1) You can put ANY type value in an Icon table. Records are no problem.
  21.  
  22. 2) You'd have to program your own list search, e.g.
  23.     to look for a record r in list L with a value v in its x field:
  24.    if r:=!L & r.x===y then #found it
  25.    else # not found
