I'm still not clear on "save or capture".

If you only need to know which ones were selected, you could print the query
results.

If you are saying you'll need a specific list (each time you run the query,
you should be getting a different/random list), you could convert the query
to a Make-Table query. But if you'll need to keep more than one such list,
you'll need to create a table you'll use to store the lists, you'd append
the query results to that table, AND you'd have to somehow identify each
separate "run".
