# Lists and Sets
The following shows how to work with and define a list of nodes in GSA. A similar procedure can be used to define lists of elements and other entities.
Go to the Graphic View and choose the Select Nodes cursor view (N)
Select your nodes.
Choose Ctrl+C (Edit > Copy) to put the selected nodes into a list on the clipboard. You can then use Ctrl+V (Edit > Paste) to paste the list where you wish to use it, e.g., a list of nodes to which node loads are to be applied.
To permanently save this selection as a list, Right Click > Save Selection as List > give your list a name and save. Lists can also be edited in Explorer Pane > Data > General Data > Lists.
View your saved lists in Explorer Pane > Views.
See the GSA Reference (opens new window) for more on this topic.
