The DELETED() function accepts only alias or work area number as a parameter not record number. You can check only if the current record is deleted. To check other record you've to move pointer to it.

>One thing that is important to me is to use a code similar to the one above as this view probably is going to be used for more users, I guess this is good way to check whether the record is already deleted, but in case this is not always effective could you show a better way.
