=====================================================================

You are now ready to order messages from the archive.  Suppose, that
you want the message whose item# is to the right of What Is DHEA?

Prepare a message to:

listserv@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Leave the subject line blank if you wish or put anything in there.
This line is not read by the "Robot".

In the body of the message, insert the part you saved to a text file that
was between the Snips.  This is the language that the "Robot" understands.

//DBlook   JOB   Echo=No
Database Search DD=Rules
//Rules DD *
select * in parkinsn
print all

Before you start adding Item#s to the print all line, there is something
you must know about the "Robot".  If the number of lines contained in the
Item#s you select exceeds about 700 lines you may not receive all the
messages because of truncation. Mentally add up the total number
of lines of the messages that you select to stay under 700. The Recs
column shows the number of lines that the message contains.

We're ready to order some messages now.

//DBlook   JOB   Echo=No
Database Search DD=Rules
//Rules DD *
select * in parkinsn
print all 3957

Send the message.  In a few minutes the return message or messages will
be in your mailbox.
