Can the addresses, which reside in an address book, used as a (not Dynamic) "Distirbution List" contain more the one email address? If so, what's the delimiter?

The reason that I ask is the I have an address book something like this: 
HF  A@THIS.COM
DD  A@THIS.COM,B@THIS.COM
LD  C@THIS.COM,D@THIS.COM,E@THIS.COM

Etc...

My fex is somthing like this:
DEFINE FILE MyFile
BurstValue/A6 = IF A2 EQ 'HUEY' THEN 'HUEY'
           ELSE IF A2 EQ 'DUEY' THEN 'DUEY'
           ELSE IF A2 EQ 'LUEY' THEN 'LUEY'
           ELSE                      'DONALD' ;
END
-RUN
TABLE FILE MyFile
HEADING
"Information For: <BurstValue "
PRINT FILED1 FIELD2 FIELD3 FIELD4 FIELD5 FIELD6
BY BurstValue NOPRINT
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM OFF
ON TABLE SET BYDISPLAY ON
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
ON TABLE SET COMPOUND 'BYTOC 1'
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT EXL2K
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
. . .
ENDSTYLE
END

Hi,

I tried with comma( , ) a well semi-colon( ; ) as delimiter for multiple email address and both works fine.

Do you see any issues?

Thanks,
Ram

Hi Doug,

As Ram said, it works for me as well. I used ;

DEFINE FILE CAR
CNTY_TEST/A20=IF COUNTRY EQ 'ENGLAND' THEN 'ENG' ELSE IF COUNTRY EQ 'ITALY' THEN 'ITA' ELSE 'INDIA';
END
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM SALES SEATS
BY CNTY_TEST
BY CAR
ON TABLE SET COMPOUND 'BYTOC 1'
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT EXL07
END

Problem: The root cause of my issue was bursting on a DEFINEd value from an unsorted source file.
Action: I held that data in a hold file, sorted by the burst value.
Result: It worked as required.
