>When I pick a record from a grid and then go to a form to edit it, I pass RECNO() to the form and then GOTO nRecord. However, when my Nav buttons refresh code (from my version of the txtbtns class from WIZSTYLE) uses SKIP and SKIP-1 to see if it is at the top or bottom, it would lose its place. Is there something inherently wrong with GOTO cRec followed by SKIP, or did I do something else wrong? Is that why you SEEK instead of GOTO? I used a dumb workaround, which was all right because my table was small.
I don't see how you could lose your place. I have never had a problem
with goto or seek. I would think that goto is faster and when I get the
change, I use goto.
