>>I spent some time programming in C. And there was a way to refer within an array of objects to previous and next objects. Wouldn't it be nice, if you could do something like this in a DBF. Each record would be the previous record value + 1. Maybe I'm stretching this a little far, but all you have to do is resolve prev and next pointers and the rest would resolve itself.

>Would that be a pointer to address pointer? I don't know of a way to emulate that without "re-inventing the wheel" - something like a "Stack List of address' depending on ORDER." But that would require an additional array containing current, next, previous ??? I couldn't follow the result directly to a memory address location for tuple access can I? It is something to think about - and I shouldn't be thinking out-loud. Ed B

You'd have to find someone other than me, for a solution. If your able to get something like that to work you'll be my friend for life. :)
