V4RB - cursor.nextrecord trouble

[Robert Nichols]

I've finally got time to move an old project up to more recent  
Valentina version. Right now I'm testing on VServer 2.5.9 and plugin  
V4RB_Carbon..don't know what version. The plugin file appears to be  
dated April 7, 2007. (Separate question: Is there any reason to take  
baby steps like this? Should I just start testing in v 3.0?).

My problem appears to be with a cursor that moves two records  
following a SINGLE nextrecord command. It is a cursor with  
recordcount = 20. I can iterate through to position 19. My code at  
position 19 works fine, then when I hit cursor.nextrecord,  
immediately the cursor position indicates 21. I'm not joking. The  
cursor seems to work ok, though. I can read a value from the field  
(though I don't have much confidence in which record I'm actually  
reading (haven't tested that yet). But in my code, I map  
cursor.position to other items that are supposed to have parity with  
the cursor, in this case a listbox that has the same number of rows  
as the cursor. When cursor read postion = recordcount + 1, then I  
choke when trying to edit the listbox row that doesn't exist.

does anyone know about this? Should I just move up to 3.0 and spend  
my conversion efforts on newer Valentina code?

Thanks.
