The 3 in adnumber - 1 * 3, that 3 does not stand for number of entries in
the database. It stands for the length of a database entry, i.e. each entry
in the database consists of three items:

1. the url: http://www.schonder.com
2. the banner file: %/graphics/bannerads/schonder.gif
3. the accomapnying text: "Papier-Schonder KG office supply and bookstore"
You added 3 more companies, fine, you therefotr changed 3 to 6 in your call
to make-banner/ad 6, that's fine, but you now have 18 entries in the
database, six records of length 3 each, and not 36 entries. But when you
call make-banner with the ad refinement, get
adnumber - 1 * 6
is 6 - 1 * 6 = 30. No wonder you get none.
