>But, like I said before, I spend a whole year on this project and was about 2 weeks before it's all complete to go out for use. Then, this boy walks in with some face and says "Gotta do it over again." So, my give back is he have to tell me how he wants it (which he does not know what he's really talking about). I even argued with him that there is a need for the 'Revert' button, but he says no... without a guess, he wanted it back but call it 'Esc' (to make it look like he's knowing what he's doing). On top of that, I asked (here) about how to do a button for adding JPEG image (signatures) and came up with three nice buttons (Add/Edit, Delete, Exit), and the moment he saw it for the very first time, he came back and said, "Take it all out." Huh? He even asked me about how would others be able to do that and would like something to be done about that, so I did, now this? Sorry to cry baby here.

There are ways to deal with people who change their minds a lot. Start with asking for all changes to be described in writing - email - and save the email. Then when anyone wants to know why it takes so long you have it documented that you had to do the same thing over again a zillion times.


>Since this code works, I am going to leave it like this, It WORKS, right? If you can show me where I can be wrong with this code (that I copy/paste in the post before this), weather it's INDEXSEEK or whatever, I would appreciate you correct me and I will change it. Like I said, I want to be done with it. I got too much garbage from here (work), there go another saying...GIGO, you know. I wanted to go forward with the power VFP but "they" are holding me back with "DOS" thinking.


It doesn't work. If you don't move the record pointer you'll risk picking up or changing values from the wrong record. Again, either pass in the lMoveRecordPointer or change the INDEXSEEK() to SEEK.
