RECNO()

    RECNO() returns the current record number of the current work area.

Syntax

    RECNO()

Returns

    An integer numeric value.

    If there are no records in a database file, RECNO() = 1 and both BOF()
    and EOF() return True (.T.).

    If the record pointer is set to point past the last record in the file
    (by using a SKIP command to skip past the last record), RECNO() returns
    a value which is one more than the number of records in the file and
    EOF() returns true (.T.).  If an attempt is made to set the record
    pointer before the first record in a file, RECNO() returns the value 1
    and BOF() returns true (.T.).

Usage

    RECNO() is useful when you want to determine a record number from
    within a program.
