Richard,

The Get ( FoundCount ) function is highly context-sensitive, and will give different results based on where you use it. Just because it returns 250 in the People file does not mean that the same result is true in another file. From the point of view of the Members file, the cross-product relationship to People "finds" all 8000 records. So it's giving you the "correct" results.

As another example, you could launch a new window of the People file, do another find, and each window will have two separate results for Get ( FoundCount ). Both are valid.


OK, once I stopped to reflect on the idea that the same file could have been opened by half a dozen different people, each using a separate Find operation and yielding a separate Get ( FoundCount ) value, this began to seem more like a feature than a bug.

I think I'll probably find a workaround somewhat along the lines of your suggestion, Chad. Thanks.
