This example uses the GetRows method to retrieve a specified number of rows from a Recordset and to fill an array with the resulting data. The GetRows method will return less than the desired number of rows in two cases: either if EOF has been reached, or if GetRows tried to retrieve a record that was deleted by another user. The function returns False only if the second case occurs. The GetRowsOK function is required for this procedure to run.
