can dataset names be used in MATRIX MGET?

The syntax below get this message.

matrix.
mget /type= corr /file= correl .



The dataset shows up when I click <window>.

The syntax works when I specify the file as
'c:\temp\correl' rather than by the data set name.

In MATRIX is it possible to specify a dataset rather than a disk file?

If so, how would I change the syntax above.

Thanks

I assume you are using the syntax provided in a previous posting.
Rather than specify MATRIX OUT (filename)
use MATRIX OUT (*)
Then use MGET  /type= corr /file= * ...
