>>For Versions of VFP previous to 9, if the table is small (under 65,000 rows), you could do a SQL SELECT of the primary keys into an array in the order of the index key. Then do an ASCAN to find your primary key. The element of the array would be the indexed order.

Sure ?
ASCAN is equal to a ordered count

If you want gain something:

SELECT pk from table order by 1 ...
INDEX ON pk tag tagpos && without this, the locate is equal to the ordered count, again
SEEK m.pk
? recno()

>recno is then the relative position.
