accroding to http://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/Maple/view.aspx?path=convert%2fVector  set can't be converted to Vector.

So I have to convert set to list, then convert the list to a Vector:

a:={1,2}:
convert(convert(a,list),Vector);

I was wondering if there is a short way to type this or a command that I might have overlooked, as it seems too much typing for such a common operation. (it would be nice if convert would support this automatically by doing the above so one can just type convert(a,Vector).  I am using Maple 17.02. I googled around, and did not find anything.

On a side note: The reason I ask, is that dsolve and many other operations like it, return the solutions as a set. Many times I need to multiply this by a Matrix. Hence the conversion need.
