Purpose

Function to position record pointer in the specified work area


Syntax

Description

The GOTO() function positions the record pointer in the specified <workarea | alias> and returns a .T. if successful. This function is most useful in the Applications Data Dictionary where it can provide an additional link to another data file whenever needed. The <expN> is the record number you wish to move the record pointer to.


Example

Name = IIF(GOTO(supplier, RECNO()), suppliers->name, "??????")
