Goto RecID & RecordExists()

[Chuck Pelto]

Hi Ruslan,

Are you intending to change the calls for the VTables to include some  
call like GoToRecID()?

As I understand it now, RecordExists() is supposed to perform two  
functions; (1) tell the user that the record exists in the VTable and  
(2) move to that record. Is this correct?

As I stated earlier, this is confusing and I recommend adding a new  
call titled similarly to GoToRecID().

Furthermore, if you are NOT going to add the call of GoToRecID(), I  
recommend you update the V4RB_Reference_2_EN.pdf. Currently it does  
not state that RecordExists() moves the user to the record identified  
in the parameters. Currently it reads as follows:

RecordExists(inRecID as Integer) as Boolean
Parameter Description
inRecID RecID of a record.
Returns TRUE if the record with the specified RecID exists in the table.
Example:
res = Table.RecordExists( RecID )

There is no mention in the function description (page V4RBRef-72)  
that the call moves the user to the record. This is the document  
currently offered as a download for understanding V4RB, dated Jan 2006.
