Looks OK to me. I would put the DmReleaseRecord inside the 'if' so it only
gets executed if the DmGetRecord succeeds (not sure if this requires any
memory to succeed). You may also want to use DmQueryRecord (which doesn't
require a release) as you are not writing to the record. Also, txtDate and
txtClient will be invalid if they point into the record, the moment you
unlock the handle.
You must be locking handle elsewhere.
