I was trying to respond in your inimitable (and correct) way.... When
someone asks you "Can I delete a selection set?"  You respond with "What
happens when you try?"  :-)  Which is not a complete answer, and maybe not
even a good answer, but it puts the onus on them... To either try it
themselves... Or phrase the question better.  :-)   More like  "Is it
possible to delete a selection set, because I have looked all over and don't
see a (D)elete key in IUA"   

Of course, I'm not you... So it didn't come off the way it should have.

I remember years ago trying to loop the select function to pick a record
many times... And you told us all the way it worked way back then.  I should
have just said that.  :-)
