Many thanks to Orsini Coviello and  Baum for their rapid response and many 
solutions.
Orsini's solution recorded above was the one I was really interested in: It 
shows how to read in useful variables the results saved in r( ) by tab 
program, a useful piece of information that is missing in the help of the 
return command.
                                  Thank you all again
