PQCSTN queries the PHIGS state list. A call to this function causes the following to occur:

•If the structure network source is PCSS, Digital PHIGS compares all the structure identifiers in the structure paths descending from the specified structure identifier to all the structure identifiers in the archive file. 

•If the structure network source is PARCHV, Digital PHIGS compares all structure identifiers in the structure paths descending from the specified structure in the archive file to all structure identifiers in the CSS. 

•Digital PHIGS returns the structure identifiers it finds in both the structure path of the CSS and the archive file in the structure identifier list.
