Jim,

Can you possibly suggest the way you think this ought to be written?

>The Command Reference for SET DELETED has, for probably all of its life, contained the following under the Remarks section:
>
>"Note SET DELETED is ignored if the default scope for the command is the current record or you include a scope of a single record. INDEX and REINDEX always ignore SET DELETED and index all records in the table.".
>
>Many of us, rightly or wrongly, consider a SEEK command to be intrinsically scoped to "a single record". However, the result from the use of SEEK does respect the current setting for (SET) DELETED.
>
>While most of us eventually learn this the harder way, it would be most helpful if the documentation reflected the (possible) deviation.
