No I have talk about VXCMD!

Robert, and this is wrong.

Doing it in THIS way, you already cannot write SINGLE algorithm
In VXCMD which will work with ANY cursor LOCAL or REMOTE.

on print_records()
  
    get Valentina("Cursor_GetRecordCount",cursorRef)
  
    ....
end  


If follow to your idea you will MUST to have second algorithm

on print_records()
  
    get Valentina_Server("Cursor_GetRecordCount",cursorRef)
  
    ....
end  


Robert, this is totally wrong !!!!

Valentina 2.0 must allow write SINGLE algorithm.
And I can do this.

And this is target of all program languages!

    DO NOT MAKE CODE DOUBLE.

Robert, believe me, this is wrong idea.
