The above code, executes the 'then', shows me what was searched for BUT
when a
data field is displayed, the original record is pointed to, NOT a record
further
in the database.
i don't see where you did a seek to the record you are trying to get to...
granted, it has been a long while since i did anything with FPC/Lazarus or an
dBase databases but it would seem there should be an obvious seek action...
maybe...
the locate() is a seek action.
But without more info/code it is difficult to give an answer to the OP's
question.
