wuid := WORKUNIT; //get WUID
namesRecord := RECORD
STRING20 surname;
STRING10 forename;
INTEGER2 age;
END;
namesTable := DATASET([{'Halligan','Kevin',31},
{'Halligan','Liz',30},
{'Salter','Abi',10},
{'X','Z',42}], namesRecord);
OUTPUT(wuid);
DISTRIBUTION(namesTable, surname, forename,NAMED('Stats'));
WORKUNIT('Stats',STRING);
