>I find this a little bit cumbersome, so it would be best to have two methods, one to save the original position and the other to move back to the original position. But I am at a loss how to name those methods, everything I can come up with ("SaveRecordNumber", "MoveBackToRecordNumber") do not sound anything intuitive. Anybody has a bright idea how to name those methods?
A better practice is to instantiate an object that remembers the record number. When destroyed (if by release method or simply going out of scope) it resets the record number.
