I ran up against the same problem in my conversion from FoxPro to R:Base. What the user can do in FoxPro is start at a given record, then go back and forth through the table. I was able to give them the ability to start at a given record and go forward (>=) but haven't figured out how to (<=>). Any ideas would be appreciated.
