BOF() Set to .F. on each database access.
Clipper Version 1.03 dtd 09/15/90.
Problem Statement
1) BOF() is reverts to .F. each time the database is accessed; e.g.,
IF <dbf_condition> .and. BOF() will always return .F. where <dbf_
condition> might be something like IF field_data == "something".
2) BOF() will return .T. under the following example:
USE test
GO LASTREC() + 1
? BOF() // => .T.
Cause
Unknown.
Work Around(s)
1) Assure that BOF() is evaluated before evaluating other database items.
In the example above, change it to read IF BOF() .and. <dbf_condition>.
