Just a shot in the dark here. The first argument you're sending into the SEEK() function is the value sought. You should be sending in a value of .T. but you're sending in the DELETED() status of the current record in the currently-selected workarea.
Try: ? SEEK( .T., 'MyTable', 'DelRecs' ) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Weller Sent: Wednesday, February 14, 2007 16:06 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Index on Deleted() I have an index on DELETED() in most of my tables. To check if a table needs packing I look for a deleted record using this index. When I look at a table with no deleted records I'm finding that the line: LOCATE FOR DELETED() ?FOUND() returns False, whereas ? SEEK(DELETED(), 'MyTable', 'DelRecs') is returning True - which is obviously wrong! This happens on all of the tables which do not have deleted records. Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong? (I'm going to change the code to use LOCATE rather than SEEK as an interim measure).
