If you are running from Windows: After you have manually selected all the tables you want, use the option “edit your selections so far.” Use your mouse with “Edit/Copy” and “Edit/Paste” commands to save that text in a file for future use. (Consult your Windows documentation if you don’t know how to use the “Edit” commands.) The next time you run LOOKUP, select one table, select the option “edit your selections so far” and put back the text you have saved. If you are running from Unix: Learn to use DBUTIL.
