Consider the following. For a SEEK, VFP must first find out the correct record number, by analyzing the index, and then, internally, do the equivalent of GOTO record-number.
However, since SEEK is fairly quick, too, I would mainly base my decision on the convenience. For the purpose of going back to a particular record, GOTO may win too, since you don't need to SET ORDER to a particular index first.
