Copy all the members into one PS using 3.3 + PDS(*).
And READ that PS in program.

If You' d tell us what You wnat to achieve after having read ..
the member list???
the member themselves???

the suggestions might be more helpful

the odd string in the signature is the standard html representation of undisplayable cars in the browser ( for the language chosen )
