MyDSArray DS DIM (100) QUALIFIED
Text 100
Name 30

Either text or Name may be blank for each element.
I have to know if at least one name is non blank.
If so, I have to get the list of all unique values
for Name.

Not sure I understand but I might use %LOOKUPGT to find the nonblank name,
then %LOOKUP matches.

Does that help?
