RE: Arrays vs MODS

Eric,

I just thought of one thing that a mods might have over the ds array
thingy:  externally described ds support

D $Record        E DS                  extname(filename)
D                                      occurs(5)

now, on the other hand could we do something like this?:

D $Record        E DS                  extname(filename)
D                                      Dim(5)

which would?/could? effectively make each field in the data structure an
array.  pretty sure it doesn't work that way - but one can only wish.
