I want to open the same table multiple times in different work areas. I am aware of the AGAIN clause but doing it that way does not seem INDEPENDENT. If I go to a record in one area the other instance of the table is also pointing to the same record. I want the two instances of the table to be totally independant.

Failing the above, what is the best way to access a subset of records in a table that is already open without changing the table or its pointers/indexes or current record?
