Where did you get it? Who stores a single value in a db?

While reading some book on IBM UniVerse, I stuck at the work - MultiValued Database. As far as I got the information, it is something like storing data in CSV kind of format(may be I am going wrong). The purpose of this is to faster data retrival...

Do you have more idea on this?

Thanks,

Mahesh

These allow you to store multiple values in a single field. That does allow you to store CSV or an array in a single field. Years ago I did some work with Pick Basic and got exposed to this.
