John,

Help us out here.  What is it you are having trouble with?

UniData supports @RECORD, UniData supports ITYPEs, UniData supports the
ITYPE() function in BASIC even.

UniData may prefer to refer to ITYPEs as Virtual Fields, and nominally
prefers attribute 1 of an ITYPE to be V instead of I, but both work just the
same.

One difference I can think of that relates to @RECORD in Virtual Fields is
that you used not to be able to do attribute references with angle bracket
shorthand (eg @RECORD<6>), instead, in UniData you had to use EXTRACT() or
FIELD().  Might that be your problem?

Cheers,

Ken
