AndriusKulikauskas February 13, 2009 15:51 CET Hi Helmut, I am thinking it would be useful to extend CdmlList so that we can have lists of variable values where one of the variables is set (for example, Investigator=BenoitCouture). My understanding is that CdmlList does not currently support that. I think I could modify the sub CdmlList to do that. If I did, would you add that to the main code? and do you have any suggestions how best to do that?

HelmutLeitner January 12, 2010 10:47 CET : Sorry for missing this message, I just read it. What do you mean by "where one of the variables is set"?
