I agree with all of the following, that FileMan functions generally need
to be evaluated in a FileMan context. George Timson recently (in the last
year or so) has provided an enhancement to FileMan's Single Data Retriever
that may have a bearing on this discussion. The "field" argument (the 3rd

Even now, it's not uncommon to define small frequently used functions as inline in C/C++. It has the same effect (the code is expanded inline at compile time) as an alternative to allocating a new stack frame and going through the whole call/return process. Regardless of whether or not this was the

I just stumbled across the concept of creating Fileman
