Peter,

Note, that you talk about

        FindAllLinked(
            inTableA as VTable,
            inTableB as VTable,
            inRecursionDirection as Integer = 0 ) as VBitSet

In fact this function will be used very rare.

It work with NOT current record, but with all records of Table A,
And give you set of all records of table B which is linked AT LEAST to one
record of A.

Usually if you want find ALL phones of SOME person, you need to use

FindLinked( 
    inRecID as Integer, inTableA as VTable, inTableB as VTable,
    inRecursionDirection as Integer = 0 ) as VArraySet
