Thanks to all for the responses. While trying to resolve an issue with locked records, I watched my routine for handling named selections function. When the named selection was created I “had no current record” because no record was visible in the debugger. When Use named selection executed, the record became visible in the debugger. That wasn’t what I had expected because I thought the record had been unloaded.
Typically, I want to restore a selection with the current record (loaded). In this situation, I want to make sure that it’s not loaded so I was surprised when it showed up in the debugger. -- Douglas von Roeder 949-910-4084 On Fri, Mar 13, 2020 at 6:43 AM kculotta via 4D_Tech <[email protected]> wrote: > An unloaded record can still be the current record. > > also > > ALL RECORDS([RecipeRec]) // has current record > LAST RECORD([RecipeRec]) // has current record > NEXT RECORD([RecipeRec]) // no current record > . > . > . > USE NAMED SELECTION("ASD") // no current record > > > On Mar 13, 2020, at 8:05 AM, Chip Scheide via 4D_Tech < > [email protected]> wrote: > > > > and I would read into that - IF there is no selected record, the command > will load the First Record > > > > Chip > > > > > >> Hi Douglas > >> > >> > >> Doc says: > >> When you create a named selection, the current record is “remembered” > by the > >> named selection.
