Hi all.

FYI I just realized that record navigation in a cursor is limited at best. I cannot go to a specific record, even if I knew the record I wanted to go to. I can go first last next or previous, but I cannot go to record 5. I cannot tell that record 5 is the record I want because I cannot scan a cursor for the data I want. I am going to have to rethink everything about how this app can run. Perhaps I will see how fast a repeat loop works. But for cursors with thousands of records I cannot imagine how someone could requery a table, given the possibility that new records have been inserted since the last query, and get to the record he was just working with.

Thanks for any SQL help you have given along the way. I am finding SQL and the rev api's to it a most unwieldy method for storing and retrieving data. I may have to give Ruslan's product another serious looking into. I believe he has a method for doing what I want.
