Actually you need only:

    I_Daatbase_Ptr  db
    some OID (8 bytes)

Note that 
    
    OID = (TableID << 32) + RecID


So you can extract TableID (4 bytes) from

    TableID tid   = (TableID) (OID >> 32);
    RecID   recid = (RecID) (OID & 0xFFFFFFFF);
    
Now to get table 

    I_Table_Ptr pTable = db.get_TableByID( tid )
    pTable->putRecID( recid. )


MAY BE there I sense add new function

    I_Table_Ptr I_Database::GoToRecord( OID )

Which will do this job ?
