RE: Free OS/400

I agree that many would do the one-at-atime thing on a subfile,  but the
same interface would let the faster person do multiple without any coding
changes whatsoever.

Same interface allowing both.

I agree (to a degree). Although the ability to 2,3,4,4,3,5,3 is not there
(and is desirable), many list-type controls allow the selection of multiple
list items by using Shift-click and/or Ctrl-click. This can be used for
multiple 2's or 3's or 4's at a time.

I must confess though, that while I tend to use 2,3,4,4,3,5,3 during
development and testing, I have observed that most users (casual and
otherwise) tend to be in one mode (ADD/CHG/DLT/DSP) or another at a time.
