DOCUMENT:Q131599 15-FEB-2000 [foxpro] TITLE :Record Pointer Moves in BROWSE as Records Are Deleted PRODUCT :Microsoft FoxPro PROD/VER:WINDOWS:3.0 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, version 3.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY ======= When a record is marked for deletion in a BROWSE by clicking the delete marker, the record pointer moves to that record. MORE INFORMATION ================ This behavior is new to Visual FoxPro. In previous versions of FoxPro, the record pointer doesn't move when the delete marker for a record is selected. Step-by-Step Example -------------------- 1. Pick a table and open it with the USE command: USE 2. Use the BROWSE command to browse the table. 3. While the record pointer is on record #1, click the delete marker for record number 2 - but don't select record number 2, just click the delete marker for record number 2. 4. In the Command window, type "? RECNO()" (without the quotation marks) to see that the record pointer has moved to record 2. In earlier versions of FoxPro, the record pointer remains at record 1.
