Yes it is. Only problem is, when you issue that command
manually on the CMline, S/G 50 doesn't exist, duh (I mean, if
the author of XyBasic doesn't know this, then hmmm ... better
stay away from XyBasic). It's a transient Save/Get -- it
disappears when the program ends. That's why we use transient
S/Gs -- so you aren't lugging around a lot of temporary info in
memory! Transient range [00] 01-99. Permanent range: 100-1999.

XySearch. XySearch. XySearch. Doesn't a query for VA/NV yield
the same answer?

Could you be more specific about the problem with Xy <==> NB
programming? What you MUST do when you CAll files with
high-order characters in NB is use CA/100. Obviously, (almost)
all XPL has high-order characters in it (>127). If you open
something like U2 in NB even just ONCE without using CA/100, and
you then change and SAve/STore U2, you have trashed it totally.
