LIST MD = 'NEBULOUS' ]

#11

It appeared to me that someone in the chain of the post was trying to
include the quote as one of the characters to be included in the search - as
a quote rather than as a token delimiter. The chain is long and I may have
missed something. Am I being clear now or do I need to restructure my
sentences from the top?

You might need to quote the quote.

Now, can anybody clearly explain the difference of using single quotes
and double quotes in an AQL statement??
HI
Single quotes indicate an ID double quotes indicate a value required. I
think that the differentiation vanished with AP in the late 1980's.
However if you want to get ID 1 from a file that has a default
dictionary of 1, 2,3.... ( a very valuable feature when used properly
for default lists. Please do not use it as 1 = attribute 7, 2 =
attribute 13 etc as you will confuse everbody) then you will still need
to show LIST FILENAME '1'
